A traumatised disorganised old lady hoarder
The incriminating evidence on an old tape recorder 

Elements of discontent shivering through a crowd 
Firmaments of promises...

Sweet soul of chastise,
Cometh like a thief in the night, 
Seeking to vindicate

Now bearing a damned vagrant’s little one!”

Night of a thousand tears

Another day breaks,
and I'm still here
I was kind of hoping,
I would just disappear

Which is the first step to proudly
Hoist the slippery hills or climb the rocky
Mountains of fairness and democracy.

pledged myself to artful reasoning
and aspired to harness
freights of honor.

every molecule of opportunity
while the road was wealthy
and the track fertile with
