If I Were a Baby's Breath
... If I were a baby’s breath

Dressed in the muscle and fiber of restless storms.

Can’t heal my heart or remove this frown
Find my wandering muse when everything's upside down
Even hands can hurt on a spinning wheel, going round

No Les No More

All dressed up like an atheist in suit and tie
With nowhere special to go at this time
A liar by trade when he was alive
