"Vagabonds and Vagrants" by Roche Du Plessis
2012-11-12 In this town of vagabonds an’ vagrants, amidst that fragrance of piss on pavementsIs a masquerade of this blatant hatred towards this world that forsook and betrayed us
Doing what we can everyday to survive, knowing it could all just change on a dime
While trying to keep it real an’ stick to our lines
though it’s strange how we always seem to change all the time
"A Lullaby" by Adam Jerret

Honesty was once a temple sold
Simply to ease her mortal soul
For just a moment in somebody else's life

So complicated, how I wish it wasn’t
Ooh darling, you’ve been such a burden

Tog soek jy meer, nog weer
Soek jy weer nog meer seer

whip my face
My skin tingles from the night’s embrace

A story hand-written in a small leather-bound notebook
"Inversion" by Emmerentia van Zyl
2012-11-12 I don’t know why I always fall for the bad guyAnd though I know it’s not my fault, I can’t seem to bring
myself to leave you where you are
(Far)

The voices came through the drain, in a night-time prowl
The voices came to lay the blame

2012-11-12 And I always wondered what this life iswhere I fit in, who I'm meant to be
Can't you hear the thunder raining down
on this life, echoing to me
that we're all lost at sea?

Jy het my hand vasgehou
Op die lippe gesoen
My laat lag
