"The Colour Still Unwinds". This song is dedicated to Machiel C Jonckheer (d 28-5-95),. friend of friends, mind of minds, heart of hearts. Take care. .
Severed from unearthly mythomania. I lay to rest te ghosts of past seductions. leaving false paradises unfathered. I sing swan songs for stability. . No quarter for facade, falsity shall go the way of all flesh.
You shall die so many times before you perish. . Surrounded by living, self indulging mirrors. digesting temptation's stolen fruit. moving on self-fulfilled circles.
Time and time again you tried so hard. To lose your head, to free your heart. Mister 'afraid to lose control'. You were your own, ever intricate. Marionette and puppeteer.
I'm seeing the parts in me. that which I hate to see. suffer the shadows. suffer the shadows. . The child inside weep for my life. for such bitter twisted dreams.
when my ups are down. when my downs are up. I want you. feeling inside out and. from the outside in. I want you. on a silver screen. in a magazine. i see you.
He that lives in hope, dances to all ill tune. for wantonness knows no law. and corporations have neither bodies to be punished. nor souls to be damned.
i remember the island. there's a tale to tell. spin of the water wheel. crack to the conger eel. a triangular canvas. in a see of green. translucent man o' war.
Self seeker. Axe grinder. Fool of deepest dye. Thorn in my flesh. Red hands. Walk humbly with your devils. . Time server. Worldling. Plague of hearts and hopes.
Wild thing. You make my heart sing. You make everything groovy. . Wild thing, wild thing. Wild thing, oh, wild thing. . Wild thing, I think I love you.
Picture a man with his life in his hands. consumed by the death of his dreams. clutching at straws he dreams no more. a desolate figure, I am he. my agony fuelled by the shadows I ruled.
I am the king of misrule. A puzzle of jigsawn emotions. An enigmatic witches brew. Of reality, illusion. And helter skelter sanity. A fusion of confusion.
The weatherman is calling. Calling, calling. The weatherman's informing. Of a bright new day. . There's no more gloomy weather. Forget that umbrella. No more diseases sneezing.
Master of all moods. Jack of none. Eight wonder of the world. Angelic when I please. Possessed to some. . Dreamer in the clouds. Down to earth. At sixes and sevens with.
The morning star has long since gone. The sun is high in the sky. Shadowless a figure stands. Stranded on Venus sands. . Up in the blue and circling. The seabirds watch and wait.
Generations. A nuclear family. Centres of small worlds which itch for attraction. In stillness of spin. Energy. Potential for creation. . Interactions.
Internal descent down every ladder in existence. lie naked with the dragon-no interest in resistance. to give myself vision where I was blind. I trip the trigger and detonate my mind.
slide over here. listen to me. rippling wordstreams. to unlock dreams. take up the slack. loosen these bonds. unzip and undo. untie my tongue. untied undone.
Sink your identity. Fuse with a heavenly body. Lose your heart. And make a god in her image. . Sink into oblivion. Friends, your love I have forgotten.
