The oldest song of this set, started in 1996, finished 2009 after hearing a recording of the ill-fated Smashing Pumpkins concert in Dublin.
lyrics
This was never how life was supposed to be, all black eyed angels with broken wings. Lights go down it’s all an act: smoke and mirrors. Bring flowers to my funeral, laughter from the earth. Living to die or dying to live I can’t tell what’s worse. Time has come and gone... Beauty is a stranger to the air. The air still breathes but I’m not there. Love goes out the seas my part or crush and peril.
