DISCLAIMER: Blah, blah, blah, Bebop, blah, blah, blah, don't, blah, blah, blah, OWN.

A/N: Ah, yes, more prettiful stuff from the deeply disturbed mind of me. Everyone has a song all their own – what will Spike's be like? (Shorter than Faye's Song.) I really hope you can read this and perceive it with an open heart and an open mind!

As you probably know, you have entered the realm of my Cowboy Bebop series, SONGS. I already have up Faye's Song, and shall be finishing up Jet's Song and Ein's Song real soon. Please look forward to those being released later in the week. (Probably this coming Monday, the 8th of March, 04.)

Enjoy.

Spike's Song – cowboy bebop (SONGS, SERIES 2)

SPIKE'S SONG – cowboy bebop

It's haunting, really

I can never forget

Never look back

And it isn't real

REALITY ISN'T

I throw it away

No reason to keep it here

No reason to let it

Stay

WHAT YOU

All these things

Can do is drag you down

Drag you away from

Your mind

And create another existence

One you

Don't wanna have

THINK

It seems so much simpler

Than it really is

Never will be

More complex

Than it can be

And it's all trash

That you wad up

Into a fist

And throw

Away

Because otherwise it's just something

To replay

In your head

Until you die and start to

Decay

Under the ashes of what used to be

A real world

And it's just something that you ignore

IT

If you let it go

And remember that it's gone

Then it's the same

As forgiving your past

And letting it all remain

I gotta be released from this cage

Of videos and films

Those constantly replaying

Inside of my aching brain

Waiting to be resolved

They never will be free

Just as I am here

They will be with me

Until the time when the truth

Is resolved and I can find out

Whether death

Came to claim

Me a long time ago

Or if it's waiting

Just around the corner

IS.

And this is all unreal.
