Down by Seamus O'Rourke When you close your eyes at end of day, let the darkness come out to play and so the play begins. What goes on in the darker caverns of your mind? Is there law and order? Do you really believe in the things you’re not sure about? Do we need to do the things we do and what if there was a test, what then? Does it matter if we’re not a bendy as we used to be? When you look inside yourself, what do you see? Where are we and more to the point, what the hell are we doing here? |
