Almost heaven.

                                       I

We embody a soul
a soul never whole
We relish the hunt
As we live for the blunt

And so we survive
As Each day you thrive
On a hardwired lie
That you wouldn't die

Unless you have found
With your bloodly hound
That broken pretty thing
With the other half wing

Who could finish your start
Who would wait to last
In whose brokenness you're whole
In whose body lies your soul


                                       II

And what if you too, are wrong
Her name, another song?
Would you still go on?
Wake up another morn?

Oh! Aren't you the one
As another, or none
Oh let's forget the lie
Maybe it's time to die

Pour me another cup
Maybe the time is up
You go only so far with the gin
Time for the greatest sin

You cut off your half wing
And in despair you sing
To those who loved
And To those who lived.
