Oh cruel fate
holds my hand
as i travel accross
this immortal land

The longing heart
An emptey fight
a longing for death
of life taking flight

Oh haunted fools
The voices tool
dances to words
of voices unheard

Lan said hearts
As Lan said hurts
A dream of pain
where you lurk

all we tried
has flourished
then died
at the back of the night

Note well
the altogether
the merri whether
and the bottomless dell

we the rejects
rejoice in the failure
of the lonely
and the unwell





Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling
From glen to glen, and down the mountain side
The summer's gone, and all the roses falling
'Tis
