Christopher is always in his head, she said |
|
I think it came without a sound - |
|
The world woke up and he broke down |
|
|
|
Christopher was always good with the girls, she said |
|
But even so I never saw |
|
him fall in love with one at all |
|
|
|
When he's tired, she said |
|
he always goes down |
|
When he's tired, she said |
|
he always goes down |
|
he always goes downstairs |
|
|
|
Christopher was never wild. He's glad, she said |
|
His father was a stupid man, |
|
says Christopher, and so began |
|
His goal just to be better than |
|
some long-gone, no-good, stupid man |
|
He could have made a better plan |
|
He should have made a better plan |
|
|
|
Christopher would burrow deep if he could, she said |
|
Somewhere far away from here |
|
And sleep until he disappeared |
|
|
|
When he's tired, she said |
|
he always goes downstairs |
|
We don't see him for hours |
|
for hours, for hours |
