Double Suicide

Hiding out here in the rain
Comforts you, they say
I wheel myself out again
Let get wet while I can

Double suicide
When an orphan leaves the dock for the last time
Double suicide
Skinny dips into the black seas of time
Double suicide
Clock towers destroy the hours at the same time
Double suicide
Minute and second hands make love at fifty-nine

Shaking
I'll stand and wave until my wrist snaps open
Breaking
I hear the wound calling
Waking
Find the window where my dreams are open
And break in

When an army burns their flag at the front line
Double suicide
Their hearts squeezing through the cracks upon their spine
Double suicide
Interdependency depends when we unwind
Double suicide
Double dupeckencies, but can't get past why

Shaking
Stand at ease until their necks snap
Breaking
To hear the bombs falling
Waking
Find the window where their dreams are open
And break in

How long to go
Rain into snow
How much to know
Turn rain into snow
Not much to go
Rain into snow
Not much to know
Turn rain into snow
