Mongrel

(album: Hard Cold Fire - 2023)

We crawl
On splintered knees
Over bloody soil
To another impasse
We crane
With broken necks
To glimpse a future
We can never expect

I'm leaving
Not saying goodbye
I like darkness
And darkness likes me back

With words
We try to heal
But from our mouths
They fall unheard
We breathe
In spite of it all
Another indignity
On we crawl

I'm leaving
Not saying goodbye
I like darkness
And darkness likes me back
A mongrel
No Flag to hide behind
I'm leaving
Not saying goodbye

With words we try and fail to heal
With words we try and fail to heal
With words we try and fail to heal
With words we try and fail to heal

I'm leaving
Not saying goodbye
I like darkness
And darkness likes me back
A mongrel
No Flag to hide behind
I'm leaving
Not saying goodbye
