She was hunting for another fight

Almost happy in the dimming light

A girl who always wanted more

A pack of smokes from the corner store

She moved like melting ice

Through the black of my mind

Her time was up like that

She left behind a tabby cat

Plastic Christ upon the wall

Here inside this empty hall

Damp from the caress of time

Floorboards creak a musty sigh

"No funeral" was what she said

Although I never thought I'd see her dead

I felt she'd outlive us all

Sure as mountains crumble in the fall

She sang like broken glass

A little flat and always fast

She left a shadow when she went

Two days of shopping and a month back rent

Wooden cross upon the wall

Here inside this silent hall

Dark from the caress of night

Windows grey with candle light

Crucified figure on the wall

Here inside this sullen hall

I'll always praise all she could be

I beg to God someone remembers me
