Mr. Grey

RIP Trooper, December 2005-October 4th 2014

Through the fish-eyed lens of tear-stained eyes,

I can remember all of my own lies,

And that grey bandanna you wore when we got you from that home,

But now, I've gotten the call on the phone.

I can remember cuddling on the couch,

And sitting at the window in a slouch,

But nearly a year ago,

I felt the same, and now I know.

It wasn't all in vain,

Because, if nothing else but pain,

You at least made one little boy smile,

For a while.

Yeah, I took the first line from Pink Floyd's the Final Cut: possibly the best line in any song ever
