SCENE SET: after Satine dies, and Christian falls into a depression he drunkenly writes a poem about his only friend - Absinthe.

N.B it is called 'Dark Bubbly Liquid'

God, I need some Absinthe to fill my stomach again

Just so it can dull the pain

Just for a little while

So I can fall back into denial

Its something that I need

So that the demon of my depression can feed

On the brittleness of my heart

I need it, to fall into hallucinations of how it was at the start

I need the bubbly liquid to bubble down my throat

And wrap me up in its slumbering coat

It makes my head cloud, away the dark

It almost lets me catch a fleeting spark

Until the evil hallucination itself dies away

And I'm left here to pray

I need that stuff to drink until my senses are flat

I need it to drink until I fall asleep on my bedroom mat

I need it to remind myself of the good times

The good rhymes
