The fight is over
The skin has cooled
The sweat has turned rancid
And soaked into clothes, now stained and stinking
And the skull once full of fire
Has turned its insides
Into placid black volcanic glass
And we can all catch our breath back
But no flux of colour, smell, touch or recollection
No friends again, no death by halves
No, it was way too easy, it was far too hard
No, that's why it lasted, that's why it ended
Where infinite destinies converge upon a fixed point
And then just disappear into the blue
But there's still a little bit of blood in the smile
Still a little bit of shine on the bruise
A little warm red ember remembered under the skin
A little glisten to the blistering too
A little bliss and ecstasy yet to
Squeeze out of the days that we have left
A glint in the middle of the black eye
Still a little bit of fire in my breath, split in two
However brave, however brief and painless
However loved, however long awaited
However kind, however celebrated
However survived, and however grateful
However fearless, however final
However destined, however trialled
However beautiful, however mended
How the hell ever got here together
And how, how they will tell you
Listen to the heart that's squelching in your chest
There, how they will tell you do your best
For a little sick simpering tyrant
Inside the cavity cowering
There's still a little anger left for the righteous
A little love left out in the wild
Still a little bit of blood in the smile
Still a little bit of shine on the bruise
A little warm red ember remembered under the skin
A little glisten to the blistering too
A little bliss and ecstasy yet to
Squeeze out of the days that we have left
A glint in the middle of the black eye
Still a little bit of fire in my breath
