Brave

Without a word you threw up on my shoulder

I shot up from my seat in disgust

I've been talking to someone with my back

To your sickness until right now

Later you'd say the ground swallowed you up

I'd say no, that's the drugs you were on

If only ice cream didn't melt

If only we laughed every day

If only closing time was myth

If only we had one more hour

And I cringed when I said something stupid

But you laughed anyway which was nice

And to fall down the stairs in the art school

And to wake us and curse that I drank

If only aeroplanes made sense

If only trees breathed more than us

If only Belfast caught the sun

If only we had one more hour
