The lyrics are for the most part stories, third-person tales - even if, at times, I'm singing the external characters in first-person mode. I still can't tell you, of course, why a certain clutch of songs should come along together like this with if not exactly similar subject matter then certainly a broad similarity in areas of concern and styles of writing. In this instance I've ended up with a number of tales of people in earthy and/or earthly circumstances.
