Heroin Jar
Capture pain in chryostasis
Hojo bleeds away our crimes
Needle wounds from dyed-old faces
A lie so poignant every time
Hanging here in gangrene liquid
I catch a loving glance from you
Issued forth from eyes so fetid
All they did that hurt; I knew
Seal our pain and all our longing
White enamel glints on glass
Our minds meet, needing but one thing
A question neither dared to ask
Fill the jar with memories cancelled
What did we do that was so wrong?
Blessed by countless drugs and scalpels
You know this is where we both belong
Conspirators destroyed our bliss
Taken, though how hard we tried
Now your shattered crystal kiss
Comes under sin-scorched Mako skies
The last thing I ever want to see
Is you face, lit up by former dreams
My fragile final fantasy
Has been split along its bloodstained seams
Sing a song of Shinra warfare
Throw my heart with the lowest note
Name a hell and I swear I'll wait there
I'll pledge my life if the jar can float
Tell a tale of happier futures
If it isn't true, my love, then lie;
Twist my skin with ice-cold sutures
One way to win and a thousand ways to die
Factory smoke and chain-linked streets
Do you feel sweet Midgar breathe?
I never loved any drug so dear
But this is the one I choose to leave
Cry a sea of tears engulfing
I'll drown with them amidst the tide
One last thought of you, my darling
Crippled by their own poisoned pride
I owe it all to you, our past
Inside your storm I'll die alone
I close my eyes for you at last
My Zack, say that my jar precedes me home
