Walking down Memory Lane
riding the Runaway Train;
childhood dreams, family blues
unspoken the hidden truth.
Lost and found, unforgotten,
heading to a world of pain;
burning hot and feeling cold,
nothing left for me to chose.
.
Who's right?
Who's wrong?
Who cares?
Who's in?
Who's out?
Who dares!
.
Family, all enemies,
a childhood, forgotten, lost;
broken soul, a life in vain,
just a boy, no place to grow.
A journey, escaping now,
no matter what it will cost;
on the road, covered in pain,
day and night, the tears will flow.
.
Who's right?
Who's wrong?
Who cares?
Who's in?
Who's out?
Who dares!
.
You can't run, you can't hide!
Forgive, never forget!
Gotta live, gotta die!
Gonna swallow your pride!
Live without a regret!
Gotta live, gotta die!

Llion the Brave Version 2
Her screams diminished as Llion was dragged away from the cell. The stench in the corridor was less but there was still damp, decay, defecation, death. His feet dragged, like a raggedy puppet, the guard either side of him holding him fast. He could feel their individual fingers digging into his scant flesh, leaving their impression on his bones.
