An arrangement of two Scottish tunes: „Willie’s drown’d at Gamry“ is an old tune I found in the Highland Collections. It is followed by a jig called „Konrad’s“, which I wrote for my late uncle.

lyrics: 
I can’t bring myself to seek the truth any more 
Don’t ask me how I feel 
I’m neither up nor down 
Who’s keeping score anyhow? 

I can’t face you fully or look you in the eye these days 
Don’t think that I don’t want to 
But my heart is sore 
I’m looking down and down I go 

I know two worlds 
and I don’t know which is real 
so I choose each word 
and the darkness I conceal 

chorus 
Ah, oh! Where did he go? 
High then low I’m still searching for my soul 
So near but they never found me 
and I’ll wait a while in my silent purgatory 

I can’t bring myself to say I love you any more 
Don’t think that I don’t want to 
But on these words 
I’m choking now somehow 

I try to hold you but my arms are thin these days 
Don’t think I should be leaned on 
This beam’s been brought down 
and down I go once more 

I know two worlds 
and I don’t know which is real 
so I write this down 
and hope the light I can reveal 

chorus
