1. _ Silver Dagger
Don't sing love songs
You'll wake my mother
She's sleeping here right by my side
In her right hand, a silver dagger
She says that I can't be your bride
All men are false
Says my mother
They'll tell you wicked
Lovin' lies
And then the very next evening
They'll court another
Leave you alone to pine and sigh
My daddy is a handsome devil
He's got a chain five miles long
On every link, a heart does dangle
Of another maid he's loved and wronged, ohhh
Go court another tender maiden
In hopes that she might be your wife
For I've been warned so I've decided
To sleep alone all of my life

2. _ When Time Is Stolen
The music stopped in my hand
Sadly smiled the band
Softly echoes your laughter riddled with tears
When time is stolen it flies
Lovers leave in disquise
Weariness hangs like a curtain
Heavy and old
Heavy and cold
It said to never look back
To shadows you left on the track
Gather your roses and run
The long way around
And if time should ever be right
My love
I'll come to you in the night
My love
But now there only is sorrow
Parting is near
Parting is here

3. _ Last, Lonely, and Wretched
You're tired and you're cold
You long to be free
But in this god forsaken land
You find no hope
No family
The many roads that you've wondered
Since the day of your birth
You've become one of the last. lonely, and
Wretched
Your hair is matted
Your face and hands are dirty
The years that you toil
Must number somewhere near thirty
The deepening of a sadness
Grow finally into madness
You are truly one of the last, lonely, and
Wretched
Your eyes are wild and frightening
At the same time they are blessed
And I wonder if god died
Turned his back or only just rested
When you walked out on the seventh day
Through the big gates and on your way
To become one of the last, lonely, and
Wretched
For once, you were a child
Your cheeks were red
You were well fed
You laughed and played till you got teary
Ran to your mother when you were weary
But some where you were forsaken
Alone, no one there to blame
And somehow all was taken
Your mind, your body, your name
Forgive us our unkindness
Our desertion and our blindness
With you
The last, lonely, and wretched
Forgive us for the last, lonely and wretched

4. _ Love is a four letter word
Seems like only yesterday I left my mind behind
Down in a gypsy cafe with a friend of a friend of mine
Who sat with baby heavy on her knee
yet spoke of life most free from slavery
With eyes that showed no trace of misery
The phrase made connection- hurt was she
I heard that love was just a four letter word
Outside a rattling store front window
A cat meowed at the break of day
Me, I kept my mouth shut too, I had no words to say
My experience was limited and underfed
You were talking while I read
To the one that was the father of your kid
You probably didn't think I did
But I heard you say that love is just a four letter word
I said goodbye unoticed
Pused forth into my own games
Drifting in and out of lifetimes
I mentioned to go by name
Searching for my double
Looking for complete evaporation to the floor
So I tried and failed to finding any door
I must have thought that there was something more
Absurd and that love is just a four letter word
So I never knew what you meant when you were
Speaking to your man
I could only think in terms of me
And now I understand
After waking enough times to think I see
The holy kiss that is supposed to last eternity
Blow up in smoke it's destiny
Falls on strangers
Travels free
Yes now I know that traps are only set by me
And I do not really need to be
Assured that love is just a four letter word
