lirik lagu nang - no new ways
[verse 1: tania nwachukwu]
there are no new ways to write about death
believe me i have tried
i rewrote the body as sleeping princes and princesses awaiting a kiss
not a knee in chest
the outstretched hand as plea
outstretched hand as offering
outstretched hand as launch pad for last l!ck of life to leave
outstretched hand as superman fist in preparation for flight
i’ve tried to write about it
hanging limp off my bed
as tears pr~ck my eyes shut thеre are no new ways to writе about death
in this version, i imagine a miscommunication
the police man pulls up black body dusts it off and says ‘my bad’
in the last version, there was a forcefield and every bullet bounced back
in this version, pigs don’t have a name
they feed on our flesh for identity
i’ve written
in this version i’ve prepared poems
in the next version, i’ve posted them to all my bothers
i tried to write when she died
i tried to write when he died
i tried to write when they died
i tried to write but the words don’t find me, or them
those who cannot see their sons in the sun of autumn
or their daughters in sarah reid or sandra bland
for the people who need to wear the shoe to know where it pinches
don’t question me when i don’t feel like smiling
when i’m not talkative, or when i’m not applauding
there’s no new ways to write about death but, too many deaths to write about
