I Used to Have a Name

I used to have a name, but now I am afloat. Above my people's dread, I live in moments past.

My Soul Undead

My Father Was a Drunken Fool

I lived in moments felt
And left the hours, deft.
I lived in moments felt
And saw my sorrow cleft.
When love was truly felt,
I lived in moments once.
I used to have a name,
But now I am afloat.
Above my people's dread,
I live in moments past.
And, when I lost my name,
Freedom, I have become.
