'Vestiges of Love' by Tyburn Blossom
Loneliness
Stalks every waking and sleeping moment
Seems to prefer me to anybody else
There is no escaping her ice-cold caress
Darkness can descend as quick as a flash
Hearts once aflame now just ash
Wherever I turn
A reminder
There is no release
I want to die
I’m haunted by
Memories - the vestiges of love
Out onto the shining city streets I rushed
Desperately sought out a distraction, but
There is no diversion diverting enough
Happiness hangs suspended by a thread
One moment alive, the next... dead
(Chorus)
I had hoped you were too ladylike
To misinterpret this advice:
"You live this life once, don’t think twice; you’ll soon lie deep beneath the Earth”
Why can’t I forget that night that she can’t remember?
(Chorus) x 3

'There’s Been A Terrible Accident' by Tyburn Blossom
Is there anyone out there who can honestly proclaim
That, if he had the power, there is nothing he would change?
If there are things you have not yet done
Do them while you have breath in your lungs
We do not know which breath will be the final gasp
There’s been a terrible accident
You’d better come at once
The love of your life was involved in it
Isn’t that just your luck?
Upon the stroke of midnight, into your room I crept
And watched the dancing moonlight on your face as you slept
Just to make sure you were all right
Safe from things that go bump in the night
Savour every second for the next might be your last
There’s been a terrible accident
You’d better come at once
The girl whom you love is among the dead
Isn’t that just your luck?
It’s one of those things that makes life absurd
How easy it is to ruin someone’s world
A doorbell or telephone rings, followed by those fateful words:
(Chorus) x 2

'Billy No Mates' by Tyburn Blossom
Always the odd one out, you could say I am the black sheep
Not just of the family, but of the entire species
When I was barely a few seconds old
I answered to ‘Billy No Mates’
I feel like a round peg in a square hole
I have always felt this way
Listening is not enough, give me helpful advice
Surely it is obvious I am desperation personified
(Chorus) x 2
I want to experience, not just exist
Not on the inside, nor looking in
How can you claim that your life has been lived;
When you make no attempt to understand what life is?

'Neck In a Noose' by Tyburn Blossom
Born into this world
Without a choice
Without warning, hurled
Into the void
I opened my eyes, looked from left to right
And saw nothing; well, nothing worth discussing
Whatever I do, I find my neck in a noose
Oh, it makes no difference which choice I choose
Damned if you don’t and equally damned if you do
Well, that’s life for you
I am not a pessimist
I just believe
Happiness exists
Only in dreams
Beware of beauty... it is usually
A disguise; fangs dressed up as smiles
(Chorus)
The weight of the world lies upon my shoulders
And it’s starting to hurt
(Chorus) x 2
