More interesting than gravel?

24 Frames (Jason Isbell cover)

Ceremonies for the lonely

Lyrics:
There was trauma when you woke in the night
There was chaos when you started the fight
There were no winners or losers
Just plasters on bruises
And angry neighbours who turned on their lights

And no one can afford to go out
But you don’t have to shout so loud
We’ll get some cheap wine from Aldi and sit on the hill
And watch the sky as the bombers fly out

I’m just a little bit wiser just a little bit older
Just a little bit sadder just a little bit colder
You and me and trauma

You put the trauma in a box
And stored it in the loft
And then told me off
Because I’m either too sad 
Or not sad enough

We’ll take the lock down dog for a walk
Throw it snacks and throw it bones
Give it different pet names to make it confused
Will it be living with me or will it be living with you?

I’m just a little bit wiser and a little bit older
A little bitter sadder a little bit colder
You and me and trauma

You and me and trauma
I’m just a little bit wiser and a little bit older
I’m just a little bit wiser and a little bit older

You and me and the trauma

Lyrics:
When you try to explain that the feeling is a precious thing
Don’t just give it away its the start of everything
It will break your heart to see how fast the money goes
Then your climbing a wall under fire and you’re all alone

And we all fall down
In this roadkill town

There's a scar on youre face from the fight that you had at school
There's a primitive smile when the memory returns to you
Your were too locked down to reach out to anyone
Now your friends and foes have come and gone

And we all fall down
In this roadkill town
And we all fall down
In this roadkill town

They say love is drug but I’ve had better memories
All you energy goes in a rush like amphetamines
Play it cool, play it cold, play it dumb and then terminate
Leaving feelings of loss curled around you like a snake

In this roadkill town
In this roadkill town
And its all right now
And its all right now 
In this roadkill town

Roadkill Town

Something to keep me warm

LYRICS:
There is something there 
Waiting in the dark
Feeding on your fear
Clawing at your heart
Seekers of the truth beware
We are not alone in here
The leaders are now lost
Time is only borrowed
Monsters walk among us
Run and they will follow

Sorrow is a long clear note
Sung by everybody’s ghost
Monsters walk among us
Ubi est deus tuus

How can I believe in our gods when they leave us to live in this seething mass of misfortune and suffering?

Ubi est deus tuus?
