When you saw me out in the pasture / covered in ticks and mange / folded me into your linen shirt

I don’t know how to explain / The despair that follows / Months and months of being in fight or flight

Am I to forever run in the endless staircase / That so many of us call life? / The one with no railings

I haven't seen him for twelve hours, but who's counting / Well, I must confess that would be me / He has vanished, and I haven't a clue where he may be...

Some always wander in the sky like a cloud. / You might not envy the loneliness, but They different from the crowd. / Bright in their own way, but not so loud.

I'll never forget what you gave, / a look that could unwind time. / You froze that very moment

In the stillness of dawn, a soldier dreams, / Of a home left behind, or was it just a gleam? / Hiraeth grips the heart, a silent yearning stream,

They said the spending served the people, / yet the debt climbed year by year; / billions borrowed in our name

Kissing the Guillotine
I don't know how I still adore. / Though her betrayal cut so deep. / Now I believe she loves me more.

The room feels so quiet, / The phone number's dialing, / But there's nobody there.

TIme shared a familiar song sowing the seeds of right and wrong. / In s beautiful dance providing love in one emotional glance. / Longing to hold each other in a loving romance.

The shards of dreams erased, / The pulse forgotten by me, / In nightmares' iron vice encased,
