You promised I wouldn't find you in a bag
And you promised I wouldn't find you in the ground 5 years later
Our game of hide and seek was nothing more than a game.
For when I found you, you were on the ground.
When I found you, you were trying to hide yourself.
But I've found where you were hiding
You spilled your stomach in the bathtub, your blood on the ground.
The needle between the tile, your eyes pale.
You promised I wouldn't find you on the floor.
Here you are, I've found you on the floor
Yet
You've still won.
