Lyrics by Rejini - Te Recuerdan
The coffee table remains topless, bare. As the glass lay shattered by your fury I saw razor thin slivers of past beauty Reflected refracted ruins of our now. The tragedy is not that you were there But that I was. Now, I refuse to fall. I refuse to drown in the alcohol teemed rivers of your madness, your sadness. I write to say this is me. This is me. Not that shrivelled grey victim of a crime Played in black and white silent movie time In front of a crowd blinded by colour. I wrote you onto a million pages I write because I have no other way I will write till you are carried away Sinking in the ink. Disappearing. Gone.
