broken down by life
she decides to end her pain
through the attic door

Wow Tim - what inspired that one?
It reminds me of the Alan Parsons song "Oh, Life".

Hey Dizzle

an old crush of mine
through hardship and too much pain
just ended her life

always on my mind
i hadn't seen her in years
though i looked for her

it's a real shock but
i hope she's in a good place
forever at rest

the idea that we're
all together in the end
is appealing but . . .

Ah, one for James.

supremely happy
a rider of many dreams
passes on in peace

Sorry to hear about your friend. As you said, I hope she's in a good place.

Gura maith 'ad, Mr. Dizzle.

Merry, you show up at the right time with your excellent Irish.
I couldn't think of any good way to translate that. Perfect.

Cheers

fuaidríonn ár n-anam
mar deannach ar an mbóthar
ag imeacht le gaoth

like dust on the road
any which way the wind blows
our souls may wander

ほこりそう　hokorisou (like dust)
風が吹くまま kaze ga fuku mama (as the wind blows)
あちこちや achi kochi ya (here and there)

bhí muid ag lorg
trasna an doire ar fad
an gasúr feargach

we've searched for the boy -
the length and breadth of derry -
angry at his mates

i missed you so much
how could i ever forget
a rainbow like you

a scolding from da
and the boy in the balloon
wasn't there at all
