Please don’t ask so many questions That’s more remembering than i’d care to do tonight These cold hard truths have razed me to my foundation Left me handcuffed to my past I hate myself forever For all the wrong I’ve done But i keep my shit together Because I’m not the only one Made of glass My demons dance to my own dark song They sway to bastard rhythms Curse and tragedy, Filth and hurt to melody They sway to bastard rhythms

Hold On 04:39
When the only way is down, sometimes it’s hard to figure out Where one battle ends and the other begins And the whirlwind that I know, it never tires and it never slows We go round and round and round and down, down,down So hold on tonight, ‘cause if you let go I’d die I don’t think i have the strength to do this on my own So hold on tonight and smile for me one last time I don’t think I have the strength to do this on my own When the days that are lost to pain become the substance of our refrain It’s hard to want to, want to carry on I just want you to know that you’re not alone You’ve got to fight to find the peace between the disappointment and the despair.

The lonesome of the darkness, the rhythm of the breathing The stillness of the moment The knowing just the knowing All these things shall come to pass All these days shall come to pass In the echoes and the ashes Lay the questions of the actions Does the martyr truely die for the glory or the cause All these things shall come to pass All these days shall come to pass In the way down lonesome Silence after the storm The grey light after the raging night Reveals the wreckage along the shore All these days will come to pass All these things will come to pass Way down lonesome a place no one can avoid We dance around the darkness to bring meaning to the void All these days shall come to pass All these things will come to pass

Belfast '99 02:04
If only you could feel those tired streets Where only gunshots graze the bruised silence There are some hard times on the streets Here’s your barricade now what side are you on There’s a war on the streets but its not just soldiers dying Its you and me , its us and them and the heartache in between No it aint right to die for a cause that you never believed in No it aint right and yes boys we’ll fight, just not today I’ve seen the murals on the walls , I’ve walked Shankill and I’ve walked Falls I’ve stood in the shadow of a sniper tower I’ve been a pawn in a quest for power

She took my hand and we danced Like wild animals, the purest flowing of our souls The taste of whisky on her lips and in her eyes an innocence A purity and everything foreign to me I gazed across the room and saw that you were dancing too, I threw back my head and laughed until it hurt It feels good to love,it feels good to laugh It feels good to truly know that we’re alive Holding hands in the dark she whispered ‘Have you ever been in love, have you ever felt that pain?’ Felt like I’d known her for thousand years She told me that she was so glad that we met The soft light of her face in the late summer moon Comes to mind everytime i hear a certain sort of song And i know one day we’ll meet again where dreams and memories fade into a dim candescence of forgotten pain.
