Maybe you were free before

my blackened wing covered you

I took the sing from your song

I made a bed where you don’t belong

And now I’m going places on my own

Blinded, now I see the death

Moves amongst us and

with such ease surround us

These silent beasts so hard to bare …

Call me she fell beneath

the wheels to help me up

Black sea, I failed to be a light

You found alone

Call me hold me she fell

beneath the wheels to help me up

Black Sea, the monster

Killed the melody of love

Ben Howard – Esmerelda

Jet plane cuts through the clear, blue sky

left a trail across your eyes

tell yourself you’re not going to cry

felt so sweet to be on your own

once blessed with a heart of stone

never knew you would miss it so

devil’s child – looked like an angel

warm as the mouth – cold in the middle

should have learned to hold back a little

tossed across a hotel bed

live your live with no regrets

picturing the stream of days ahead

hard to stick to the straight and narrow …

wait for a sign like breaking glass in the middle of the day old depts crash into the walls –

into the windows hours at a time you count every minute of your stolen time bone and sky –

caught in the middle spread your wings –

measure the distance and soar –

dive travel light –

can’t take it with you

map of time – photographs of a face –

of an image all your hopes –

ride on this riddle

right or wrong

Sidsel Endresen & Bugge Wesseltoft – Out here. In..

I could feel my balance shifting.

Everything was moving around …

And everything I relied on disappeared.

Downside up, upside down.

Take my weight from the ground.

Falling deep in the sky.

Slipping in the unknown.

All the strangers look like family.

All the family look so strange.

The only constant, I am sure of.

Is this accelerating rate of change.

I stand here, watch you spinning.

Until I am drawn in.

A centripetal force.

You pull me in …

Elizabeth Fraser & Peter Gabriel- Downside Up

Dear sensibility! Source inexhausted of all that’s precious in our joys, or costly in our sorrows! Eternal fountain of our feelings! ‘tis here I trace thee and this is thy divinity which stirs within me…All comes from thee, great-great SENSORIUM of the world!

– Laurence Sterne – A Sentimental Journey

My wild love went ridin’

She rode all the day

She wrote to the devil …

She rode to the sea …

She rode on to Christmas

She rode to the farm

She rode to Japan

And we entered a town

By this time the river

had changed one degree

She asked for the people

to let her go free

My wild love is crazy …

My wild love went ridin’

She rode for an hour

She rode and she rested

and then she rode on …
