Ag Féachaint An Troiblóid

There is a power in witnessing the pain
Like there’s a strength that stands out in rain
And getting soaked through the skin
I was saturated by him
And I was fliuch báite go craiceann
And if you have any doubts it was you, young Ken
Would I do it again
If that was the price to pay
But I’m not sure it was that way
I could feel the pulverise
When you looked me in the eyes
And if only one of us cries
I want to make sure it’s me
So that you are free of history
And, I, of the loss that comes with renegadery
Do you believe in infinity
And if you do then what are we
Burning and turning eternally
On the one axis we spin
Then I see her with him
And everything collapses into my hands
Like grains of sand that never land
On the beach I picked them from
Are you really gone
If you have someone to hold
Does it negate our fields of gold
You know the ones we ran through
When I was young and twenty one with you
On a Facebook screen
Like I’m dancing with a dream
I made all by myself
Is my wealth
Imaginary
And do you dare me
To live without it
I doubt it
Could ever be
I won’t trade it in so I let you go free
And feel the reverberate
But something about that soul wait
For me to come back to base
It’s not in the stars I chase
But the ground I stand upon
Would you maybe write me a song?
