Remember
once
I
told you 'bout
How
before I heard
it
from your mouth
My name
would always
hit
my ears
As such
an awful sound
And
the soul
if that's
what
you'd call it
Uneasy ally
of the body
It
felt
nameless
as a river
undiscovered
underground
And
the first time
that you kissed
me
I
drank dry
the river
Lethe
The
Liffey
would have been
softer
on my
stomach
all the same
But
you spoke
some
quick
new music
That
went
so far
to
soothe
this soul
As it was
and
ever
shall be
Unearth
without
a name
Some part of
me
must have died
The first time
that
you called me
baby
And
some part of
me
came alive
The first time
that
you called me
baby
These days
I think
I
owe
my life
To
flowers
that were
left here
by my mother
Ain't
that
like them
gifting
life
to you
again
This life
lived
mostly underground
Unknowing
either sight nor sound
'Til
reaching up
for sunlight
Just
to
be
ripped out
by the stem
Sensing
only now
it's dying
Drying out
then
drowning
blindly
Blooming forth
its
every colour
In the moments
it has
left
To
share
the space
with simple
living things
Infinitely
suffering
But
fighting off
like
all creation
The absence of
itself
Anyway
Some part of
me
must have died
Each time that
you called me
baby
But
some part of
me
stayed alive
Each time that
you called
Each time that
you called
C'mere,
ooh-la-la
Ooh-la-la
Whatever
keeps you around
It
keeps you around
Ooh-la-la
C'mere,
ooh-la-la
Whatever
keeps you around
It
keeps you around
The last time
it was
heard
out loud
The perfect genius
of our hands
and mouths
were
shocked
To resignation
as
the arguing
declined
When
I was
young
I
used to
guess
Are there
limits
to any
emptiness
?
When
was
the
last
time?
C'mere
to
me,
when
was
the
last
time?
Some part of
me
must have died
The final time
you called me
baby
But
some part of
me
came alive
The final time
you called me
baby
