all is hidden within me, and i open my mouth, but not a word
An armful of freedom, a fistful of lies
Comfortably Numb
Contentment is happiness
echos of muffled gunshots
Everything around me has turned to ash
Freedom finally arrived, but it arrived in chains
From a distance you glistened and shone
God bless America land that I love
Har jaye keh mikhan maro mibaran
(they take us where ever they want us to go)
I love you so much it breaks my heart
I want to shelter you
Irreversible Violence
leyli jan – dear leyli
love left as easily as it came, darkness fell
and there was no one left to blame
Overcome me sweet oblivion, i am ashamed,
Humbled and unstable
Restless Violence
Solace
Take me home
The scar of your kiss
Those silent and snowy days, i watched it all melt
and melt away
We fit together like fingers making a fist
You take my breath away
