Status Updates From Songs for the Devil and Death

"Never forget they'll make your home your grave / once it's their Homeland, free of the brave."

"Self-taught to be a haven to myself, / I made a prison of my person, my own cage, / with every prick as irksome as a scelf, / pacing inside my mind in growling rage. / Sworn not to break, be broken by despair, / the stone cold lie still tells me, never care."

"In golden sun through halo hair, / A forward step lacked sight or care / For Ford Capri - and were there dice? - / Three lads let slip from work, a scythe / Through weft of hours, a rent in time / Between before and ever after. Rhyme / Cannot conjure the broken world, / A fireman neighbour's unreal knock."

Wake is just amazing in it's power and grief
