Burke, Shires and Halfways

LYRICS
Lost in a dream,
No intent to demean,
A heart that’s good,
And, souls… that know they should.

The glass is half full,
The ass is all fool,
We don’t suffer gladly.

Really? Really reality.

Feel surreal in this “Twilight Zone”
The blade, sharpen
The senses, hone

Let it happen in heaven
On Earth
Re-birth
Where what it is
Is what you do
The old gets new?

… to be continued

“The Shire is a region of J. R. R. Tolkien’s fictional Middle-earth, described in The Lord of the Rings and other works. The Shire refers to an area settled exclusively by Hobbits and largely removed from the goings-on in the rest of Middle-earth. It is located in the northwest of the continent, in the large region of Eriador and the Kingdom of Arnor. Its name in Westron was Sûza “Shire”[1] or Sûzat “The Shire”.[2] Its name in Sindarin was i Drann.”
