Nostanpa vaikka tämän ketjun, vaikka ei aiheeseen liitykään muuten kuin päähenkilön osalta. Siis herra Dick on väsäämässä uutta levyä ja pikku hiljaa alkaa tippua infoa sen valmistumisestakin. Ainakin sanoitusten perusteella odotan hienoa levyä. Vaikka herra menikin vastikään uusiin naimisiin, niin lyriikat näyttävät marinoituneen vielä eroliemissä. Ja se on yleensä tällä herralla luvannut hyvää myös musiikillisesti. Eli pistänpä tähän kolmen uudelle levylle tulevan biisin sanoitukset, jotka ovat newsletterin mukana tulleet. Dark Star A naked man, across the lawn, ghosts of morning walk a carpet of tears, Croquet balls, scattered moons, drowning sorrows on a sea of green. The fairy falls with broken wings; I hold it close to me and then let it fly, Another dream, another you, shattered splintered shards explode in the blue. An open door, an empty drive; no kitchen drama, no final goodbye. You're making out, it's all my fault; you left to go in search of sympathy. You thrive on grief, on tragedy; You paint the pictures you want them to see. I'm just a dark star, inhabiting a silent void, Spinning in the darkness, orbiting a universe, I want to be a meteor, want to travel at the speed of light, Another dead star, silhouette against a pale moon, I want to crash into another world. That's how it was, 'or how you saw it,' You never talked, 'you never listened,' I beg to differ, 'I choose to disagree,' You wanted out, 'I couldn't take it,' You got no balls, 'don't you know it,' That's my opinion 'you're making that clear' It's at an end, 'this thing is over,' You led me on, 'tin pot poet,' I write the words down that you don't want to see. I'm just a dark star, inhabiting a silent void, Spinning in the darkness, orbiting a universe, I want to be a meteor, want to travel at the speed of light, Another dead star, silhouette against a pale moon, I'm in another world. It ain't easy, it was never going to be, it ain't no free ride, you don't get my sympathy, You should have realised you had to compromise, it ain't easy, was never going to be easy. You let my world explode into stars. Ja seuraava: Arc of the Curve Do you remember the magic of the moment, when forever was only words away, When we believed everything was certain, All we had to do was fulfill promises we'd made, Cherish hope between us and our dreams were always safe, We'd always be together and in that I had my faith I put a ring upon your finger, and that smile upon your face And I told you, that I couldn't love you more, And we longed for the arc of the curve. We launched on the arc of the curve, We touched the stars. The fairy tale, the breathless rush of romance, If love is blind then I will never see again, When we awoke the spell remained unbroken, Our souls entwined, in afterglow, you held my beating heart, Blew away my shadows, you kissed the tears from my eyes, And you told me that you couldn't love me more, We sailed on the arc of the curve, We flew on the arc of the curve, And touched the stars. The days are long the nights are longer, In every minute there's a thought of you, I can't forget the magic of the moments, I stare into the mirror to pretend I'm not alone, It takes everything I have not to call you on the phone, Just to tell you that I couldn't love you more, That I'm lost on the arc of the curve, Careering on the arc of the curve, Crashing on the arc of the curve. This arc of the curve. I could never contemplate that you would ever walk away. Ja yksi vielä: Thirteenth Star With a heart full of sky, your eyes full of moon, I left you dying, I heard you cry, Just a fool to myself, there could be nobody else, I was lying to even think I could survive without our love, I can't deny it. Then you showed me the way, and I will follow, To the end of my days, and you know I will follow The thirteenth star. There's a point in your life, you got to reach and when you do, you know it, and now I'm here, If I held out my heart and offered my hand would you take it, if I showed you the stars would you follow, Let me show you the way, to the end of our days, will you follow me to the thirteenth star There's a point in your life, you got to reach and when you do, you know it, and now I'm here, If I held out my heart and offered my hand would you take it, if I showed you the stars would you follow, let me show you the way to the thirteenth star. I follow the thirteenth star. I got run over by truth one day. Didn't see the red light. |
