SPIDER very often it knows it won't fall space in its web gets bigger and bigger and my head swings in the air

THE HOUR THAT SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT YOU the hour is coming empty-handed it's coming in the night the hour that should have brought you

|
HILLS time turns in its prison how can believers fly from their home ground it's hard to imagine hills greener than these the earth is beginning to heat up falling suddenly
