I don’t know why / I keep expecting a name / And a message to glow

Bottled Up
How do you fix a heart that’s full / Of sadness? / Despite all the times it’s been emptied

Broken-Winged Birds
Darkness consumes them all. / Mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters. / It devours them like a starved animal, showing no mercy.
