And Layla shrugged amused. „Just things terrified people see at night that cause them doing desperate shit the next day.“

Without those, history would be boring, right?

Laughter fromA window aboveBlurry lightsAnd I know thatShe gave upon loveRight there. And I wonderWho’ll be thereWhen we fall?Who will comeTo catch us…
