A simple act of kindness could very well save a life
Think About that
Be kind to one another

We all think we’re the hero
of our story
Fighting evil 
covered in glory
What if I’m not the hero, 
What if I am the villain.
Am I just ones and zeroes?
And my brain still reptilian?
I can’t cry
I don’t know why
What is wrong 
With me?
I can’t cry
Sometimes I wonder why
I’m not sure what happened
to me
La La La La La…
Ever have that feeling 
that you’re not sure if you’re awake or dreaming?
Ever want to jump out of your skin
and run down the street screaming?
What if I’m not the hero, 
What if I am the villain.
Am I just ones and zeroes?
Or my brain still reptilian?
It’s not that I’m afraid
or embarrassed to cry
It’s not that I’m too manly
or have never tried
I can’t cry
I don’t know why
What is wrong 
With me?
I can’t cry
Sometimes I wonder why
I’m not sure what happened
to me
La La La La La…
I can’t cry
Sometimes I wonder why

Undergoing a baptismal rite of The Cloak might resemble something like this song describes. There is not much colloquial knowledge regarding the secret rituals of the Cloak, though many may imagine.

Buy Our Lies

UroboroSoroborU (Part The Veil)

See my reflection in the deep black water
Waiting to capture my thoughts in a cage
Cold streets are paved with infinite sadness
And all I see are swans leaving the place

The sound in my head is The Flowers of Evil
A selection of songs for nostalgic days
Walking alone is a blissful experience
I don't need anyone to tell me I'm wrong.

Playing our roles in a never ending script,
Laughing and crying and seeking for happiness,
A possibility born out of our consciousness
But hold on, it's an illusion.
We make the big mistake of thinking that there's enough time for everything
When in fact, there's none.

And I look back at all these people 
Drowning in their own futile existence without even knowing how insignificant it is
Nothing but particles of dust
I wish it was stardust, but it's no more than galactic trash.

See my reflection in the deep black water

I don't need anyone to tell me I'm wrong

Time (with The Eyes of Heisenberg)

Some background - I've inherited an English 5-string zither banjo - a Windsor Eclipse 10. Built in the 1930s before the factory in Birmingham was bombed in WW2 and Windsor went out of business. Sounds good in the lower register but terrible after the 5th fret! Mix of gut and steel strings originally and a unique tunnel for the 5th string www.zither-banjo.org.uk/pages/windsornew.htm

It's not the banjo I'd choose to have but then we don't choose our family either do we?

I’m always happy when
I’m holding 
This banjo
It’s not because I can 
Play any tunes 
That you know

The body’s out of shape
It barely resonates
The neck is far too long
Ugly and cumbersome
The wood is cheap
The joints are weak

But all of this
It matters
Not one bit
Because…

I’m always happy when
I’m holding 
This banjo
It’s not because I can 
Play any tunes 
That you know


The sound is high and thin
A cat on helium
The fretboard’s lost its shine
Beneath the years of grime
The strings are worn
The heads don’t turn

But all of this
It matters
Not one bit
Because…

It’s just a feeling that I get
Like a baby, like a pet
When I hold it in my arms
Life can do no harm
My lucky charm…

I’ve found a melody
That you can sing with me
These words together lets
Produce a sweet duet
Now let’s begin, I’ll count you in
One, two, three, four

Banjo

Breathing now is a conscious thought. It is something we did without thinking, and even if we knew we were sick we rarely thought about the damage we might do to someone else. People went to work and sent their kids to school not thinking of the consequences. I am a transplant survivor and my immune system is suppressed. I have had a supply of masks for 10 years. A cold could be lethal. I can't see a dentist without a massive dose of antibiotics before I go. The vaccine will not be 95% effective for me. A mask is part of my life now when around people. Now the whole world is learning how precious a simple breath is, and also how lethal it can be. We have taken it for granted and many who treated it like a joke are gone, as well as those who were given no choice. We will never forget. Today I stood outside my house in the cold and took a deep breath and filled my lungs. I'm looking forward to Spring when I can breathe in the smell of the flowers. I will never ever take that for granted again. Just breathe.
