Haul back from Winter Fairy land the wondrous Christmas tree
Open up the boxes with bright ornaments and all the trimming.

Hear the kids shout for Santa Claus and Frosty the Snowman oh so merry.
Obedient they are too, like little elves, with visions of toys, their joy...

The darkened chambers pierce the veil of sanity,
cold lifeless air surrounds and crushes like a vice,
eerie silence cannot muffle the wailing voices entombed,
death by evil, pure evil, permeates the flesh.

I fought the battle,
I lost the war;
I never saw the enemy
sitting open on the shore

I knew that it was over, 
I saw the fight was done;
I was killed by a bullet
from another son's gun

I laid there bleeding, 
I yelled a silent scream, 
"Why was my...

THE DUNMURRY INCIDENT

There’s a big row going on in Dunmurry
And the whole place has come to a stop
There’s a war going on with the girl who makes cakes
And the bird in the newspaper shop

They both fancy Taxi man Terry
Though Newspaper Nell saw him first
Yet it...

I close my eyes and look back,
always back...
to a time, a place,
to you...
I wonder about you,
often I wonder,
always you...
I loved you dearly,
only you...
love parted,

I longed for you daily,
each hour...
I looked for you nightly,
every night...
I called out for you,
strongly, loudly...
I never heard an...

God, as I close my eyes and pray to You,
I ask You for an important thing to do:
Please, let my daughter grow up strong;
Let her be safe and away from wrong;
Let her laugh, let her play, and let her run;
Let her find her moments in...

Fire on the mountain and smoke in the sky,
red embers floating then settling in dry timber
crackling like crunching bones goes on forever
howling in the distance of lost homes, lost ones
thick charred air choking, clogging breathing 
throats singed, black blood emerging
closer and hotter, confusion, no way...
