44th & Brain Cancer

Man's head gone sour
Swelling with pain
They haven't got an answer
They leave him blank

Can't catch a break
One thousand yard stare Becomes his face
Every day a waiting game
For the next one to come take it's place
Balance lost
Brush it off
Limp away

Feeling leaves the body
Piece by piece
Like a terrible forgotten dream

He's dead in the water
Asleep on the balcony now
Gave out
