I remember; recall and relive
Every silent scream sent Your way
Every cold cut of steel received
Every thought of escape perish.

I remember. Yes, I remember

Those dreary days of growing
The small-biped instruction manual
Unfitting a roadrunner – read
and reread.

I remember. Yes, I remember

The phoney foundations built
Like a yesterday’s shivering shower
Washing away like a torrent of tears
The last of the lingering hopes.

I remember. Yes, I remember

I remember, I recall and I relive
Every silent scream I sent Your way
Every cold cut of steel I received
Every thought of my escape perish.

I remember. Yes, I remember

Everything.
