You can still see the scar line, he says, where her nails caught his chest You can still see the scar line, he says, as for the rest you can probably guess He says, I’ll tell you something, he says, and let’s go of a single tear Its narrow trail glistens on his face and disappears into his beard He says, I was just a branch to break my back to break her fall And he flexes empty hands, echoes bouncing off the wall Don’t catch them when they’re falling Let them fall right to the ground Don’t catch thеm when they’re falling Pick thеm up when they’re lying down His attention floats back and forth then stays on a spot on the dusty floor His reflection stares back from the blade of an old knife stuck in the boards He mumbles how he’d have lost his hand, how he’d have bled till his veins were dry And his memories all trickle out like sand through the holes in his quiet lies He says who was I to stand in the way when someone’d made their call? And he clenches empty hands, delusions bouncing off the wall Don’t catch them when they’re falling Let them fall right to the ground Don’t catch them when they’re falling Pick them up when they’re lying down In the cold, cobwebbed archives of his head, there’s a rattling of hidden drawers As everyone that he has ever met falls and breaks and banks and soars He shuts his eyes under desperate, knitted brows, and his lips form a silent no As the shadow of his free-falling house dims an open grave below He says, everything I am, I have kept safe within these halls And his aching, empty hands pound tired fists into the wall Don’t catch them when they’re falling Let them fall right to the ground Don’t catch them when they’re falling Pick them up when they’re lying down Don’t catch them when they’re falling Let them smash right to the ground Don’t catch them when they’re falling Pick them up when they’re lying down
