Huge thanks to Iano @Rosarius for the guitar parts and to Bruce on bass... 

Are you ghosting me? Is that your deal?
Is that what this is and how it feels?
And how the hell does that work for you?
Is there guilt, do you have no clue
How it feels to love and care and trust so much
And share your dreams and fears and such
When suddenly …. There is nothing

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

Verse 2
Emptiness, no sound, no sights
A void once filled with excitement
The thrill of the pace and hunger
Their absence strikes me repeatedly
Not once, not twice, with every ping on my devices
Messages not from you scream the truth
You’re not coming

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

Verse 3
I scroll sometimes through the words
Your wrote to me when you saw my worth
No warning of the savage cut
One day warmth, the next day none
Hours of laughter, not pretending
Now a story with no ending
And I swear that I'll delete them all but don't 
Once more succumbing

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

M8
What does that say about me?
That I could be such a fool
What does that say that 
You could be so cruel

Chorus
And I think I’ve been mistaken
Are you sick, have you been taken?
Any cause to ease my shame
Cos I really cannot take 
That the mark I left could be so faint 
So easy to erase
Like I vanished without trace

Vanished Without Trace

I wrote this last year after some tragic news events. While the gun control discussion goes on, I’m still hoping…

A real pleasure to have Pravinand joining in…thanks mate, your harmonica really gives this a lift. @johnny-minstrel

Last Bullet To Fall (Brian Peters)

He had his workout, got into shape
With a pre-dawn run
Bought some takeout, briskly escaped
Into the morning sun

A rodded wood beam, trigger and tape
That he found on the ‘net
Some target shooting, sling bag and cape
And he was finally set

He moved behind the crowded scene
Like a snake on the ground
Raised his head, uncoiled to spring
As he fired his rounds

Now I’m holding my breath
Like I’m under water
For the death of death
In the ever after
Where the reels of regret
Will be turned into laughter
But till that trumpet calls
I’ll be shouting from the top of the city walls
Waiting for the last bullet to fall

Some weeks before I was glued to my phone
Just scrolling through
Caught my eye some kids had died
In a Texas school

Slip of a lad just went mad
With an AR-15
Shot his gran, got into her van
Headed down the street

Powder and lead were burning red
In the midday heat
Twenty-One Dead, the headline read
It was the bloodiest scene

So I’m holding my breath
Like I’m under water
For the death of death
In the ever after
Where the peals of lament
Will be spun into laughter
But till that trumpet calls
I’ll be shouting from the top of the city walls

Yes I’m holding my breath
Like I’m under water
For the death of death
In the sweet hereafter
Where the steel of dissent
Will be bent to a ploughshare
But till that trumpet calls
I’ll be shouting from the top of the city walls
Waiting for the last bullet to fall

Last Bullet To Fall (ft Johnny Minstrel)
