A Trillion Blows

Thoughts as heavy as lead
Words as light as a feather
Innards twisted and turned
Face as clear as the weather

Broken and bent
Recycled and spent
A smile so content
In the depth of regret

Eyes dipped in veiny red
Unable to close
Even in aftermath's bed
Tossing and turning
Long after you left
Long after you left

Chasing after ghosts
Seeing apparitions of you
In the shadow of my bed post
It's crazy I know
It's crazy I know

Coz I cannot forget
The last words you said
How deep that damage goes
Even if my head
Took a trillion blows
A trillion blows
