Last night, all I saw was Nancy. The way she cried when I held her… Like a fleshy cradle Around her broken heart. I saw her loving me

She looked like innocence And felt like sin And died like grace And fell like a bird And fell like a bird

I find no release. I die. I die, Yet I’m not free. Not 'til I die.

Nights of chuckling After no jokes And Dancing without nerves Become me

Don’t cry Don’t cry Don’t cry Because it’s your birthday.
