|
and i walked west sussex sunlight |
|
up by dead mans pool |
|
where ma, mudlarck and lewes |
|
stared me down, you drunken fool |
|
old teenage debts engulfed my chest |
|
as i contemplate death |
|
put a challenge to its glamour |
|
and all its loss and glory |
|
wet afternoon breath |
|
was taken deep into my lungs |
|
thinking of the man i must become |
|
my story has just begun |
|
and i will be returning to myself soon |
|
for i've been alone for too many |
|
of the great moments in my life |
|
alone like so many |
|
but at this moment in my life..... |
|
father, father, any way i can help ye? |
|
I am only just growing better to know thee.... |
|
thank you for all the things you've given to our family... |
|
given with your heart to your wife and my sister and me... |
|
now i look out west of battle where our ancestors lie in grave, |
|
out to breed where the blacksmith put root to our family name... |
|
I get proud of my birthright, |
|
think of the things i must leave |
|
when i leave behind the city |
|
and the living |
|
finally |
|
desire |
|
desire |
|
deep down inside of me |
|
you are not the maker nor the master of me |
|
help me to better support my family |
|
to better better of a brother be.... |
|
desire |
|
desire |
|
deep down inside of me |
|
you are not the wrecker nor the ruler of me |
|
desire |
|
desire |
|
deep down in me |
|
i've been alone for so many |
|
of these great moments in my life... |
|
alone like so many |
|
desire, despair and death |
|
you are not the wrecker nor the ruler of me |
