For Just One

Even if for just a second
You'd know what it was like,
I'll throw a chance at you.

Even if for just a moment
You told me you would try,
I'll take a chance for you.

Even if for just knowing
That you could almost fly,
I'll cut the chords and draw your breath
And take a chance with you.

Lamentations

Take away all your sorrow.
Lay them all on me.
They'll beg, they'll make you steal and borrow,
Even make you feel you're free.
But think not of this toll till tomorrow.
All the trouble,
All the toil,
God-forsaken, blood-stained soil.
In this world of words that boil,
Years of planning, yet they foil.
Lay them all on me.
