you read once that no one dies until their name
is said for the last time
that means that those ancient tragedies
weren't that tragic, really
because Icarus and Achilles
they didn't die
their names are still screamed 3000 years later
but you think you may be a tragedy
because
you're falling
you're falling
you're falling
but you don't think anyone will remember your name
the loneliest thing in the world is a crowd and
if you hit the water and no one cares enough to hear it
will you make a sound?
he told you how no one dies until their name
is said for the last time
you may have been dead a while now.
