The Last Word

There was a boy who spoke in song
 His only words were stolen from
 Poets drunken tongues
 Last breath and fleeting hums
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 He lies on my legs like a bear on a limb
 Warm mouth against my thighs
 Fur makes the best second skin when you're old
 The last words he spoke 'fore he died
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 Up on the mount, you can see where I live
 There is nothing to save me from the sea
 We swam, we are seals, our skin thick as thieves
 You promised me you'd never leave
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 My demons are all put to bed, so we rest
 Pieces of bones in the ground
 The things that we need are never there
 When it's dark, the louder the sound
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
 The last word
