1
I've done everything that can be done to heal this wound
2
Left it on it's own for years
3
I've done everything that can be done to heal this wound
4
Left it on it's own for years
5
Couldn't touch it, didn't pick it, didn't get it wet
6
It didn't stop the bleeding
7
I bandaged it, I wrapped it, stitched it, tourniqueted it
8
I held it stiff & aching in the air
9
Held it there til I went beserk
10
Didn't sleep
11
It didn't work
12
Didn't stop it weeping
13
And the wound is your life
14
And your life took on a life of it's own
15
(Or so you foolishly thought)
16
And your life rolled on over me Bang-Bang like 56 train wheels
17
Every time I heard news of you
18
And the wound was in every lousy song on the radio
19
And the pain was like a tree-fern in the dark, damp, forgotten places
20
Darkness didn't stop her growing
21
New-born baby cells dividing..
22
Curled up tight unrolling day by day
23
Stretching up, stretching out
24
Forming the same identical shape
25
Clones. There ain't too much sadder than
26
Clones - relentlessly emerging from the hairy heart of the wound
27
And the fern is beautiful in it's own way
28
Uncurling in the dark
29
Beautiful with no one there to see it
30
As the would weeps & aches
31
(Now there's some sad things known to the man from the planet Marzipan)
