News from Montreal

I lean against the wall
Someone's at the door
I think they've tried to call
Something must be wrong

I've worried for so long
For her unavoidable fall
But shared her hope that she could build
A life in Montreal

Enter if you may
And cut to what you have to say
I know she's not okay
And what it takes to end her pain

Once she had a life
With hope
She even raised a child
How did she come to such decline
Somewhere in Montreal

Please go
I don't wanna know
There's CCTV footage of her online
Please don't make me read
The comments below
I don't wanna know
About vomit in her hair
About the voices she must hear
To make her act so weird
They don't know her at all
They only see that she's
Homeless on the streets
Of Montreal

Thank you, you can leave
Your message's been received
She's out of time, and out of dreams
After years of fighting off her memories

They said she's weak
A disgrace for their society
Stated she's delusional
But failed to see she's beautiful

Could I have done more
Decide on her behalf or even by force
That she should not abandon all
And become news from Montreal

No, she should not have abandoned us all
And end as news from Montreal

Don't go
I don't wanna know
Don't go
I don't wanna know
Don't go
I don't wanna know

The news from Montreal
