Bauhaus - Of Lillies and Remains

Of Lillies and Remains

In the marbled reception hall I received a three band gold ring, from Mark. A token of esteem. Running through ghost closet locker rooms, to hide from Peter, who has fallen to the old cold stone floor, wheezing and emitting a seemingly endless flow of ectoplasmic white goo from ears and mouth. A wind rushes through the hall, whistles as it breezes through the narrow slits in the green locker doors. I hide in one of these, number thirteen
Barely concealed but hopeful
Blackout
Blackout!

I will climb this high wall
In rememberance of Clancy
To regain or re-earn my life
As I died just a flicker of an eyelid ago
The wall has many holes
And many foot pieces to fasten to
The wall is dangerous, and this is my penance
My penance and my task

I did it once and they wondered
Yet I need to go, once more around
Up breathtakingly
Across rigidly
Down easily - and foolishly
I endeavoured again
To climb the wall in vain
And capture back my chain
Of lillies and remains
Of lillies and remains
Of lillies and remains

De Lírios e Restos

Na marmórea sala de recepção, recebi um anel de ouro de três faixas, de Mark. Um sinal de apreço.
Correndo através de vestiários fantasmas, para se esconder de Peter, que caiu no velho piso frio de pedra, sibilando e emitindo um fluxo aparentemente interminável de ectoplasmática gosma branca pelas orelhas e boca.
Um vento atravessa o salão, assobia enquanto sopra entre as fendas estreitas das portas do armário verde.
Escondo-me em uma dessas, a número treze.
Mal escondido, mas esperançoso
Apagão
Apagão!

Escalarei esta parede elevada
Em memória de Clancy
Para reconquistar ou readquirir minha vida
Como eu morri em apenas um piscar de pálpebras tempos atrás
A parede tem muitos buracos
E muitas partes para prender o pé
A parede é perigosa, e esta é minha penitência
Minha penitência e minha tarefa

Eu o fiz uma vez e eles se maravilharam
Se eu ainda preciso ir, mais uma vez
Impressionantemente
Atravessar rigidamente
Descer facilmente - e tolamente
Eu me esforcei novamente
Para escalar a parede em vão
E capturar de volta minha corrente
De lírios e restos
De lírios e restos
De lírios e restos

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P41XeIJNhCA Je t'Écris d'un Pays Je t'écris d'un pays pas ordinaire Où les gens ne se font plus la guerre Je t'écris d'un pays tout petit petit Je t'écris d'un coin de ma folie Un pays bien clos, bien vert, Aux pelouses garnies des vieilles pierres Un pays véritable autarcie Sans soucis d'économanie Un pays vraiment pas grand Occupé d'un seul bâtiment Un immeuble trés haut, trés blanc, Dirigé par des hommes géants Je t'écris d'un pays pas ordinaire Où les gens ne se font plus la guerre Je t'écris d'un pays tout petit petit Je t'écris d'un coin de ma folie Un oiseau trop isolé Auprés de ces murs grillagés Frontières avec le monde des autos Dont le bruit couvre cet univers clos Je t'écris d'un pays pas ordinaire Où les gens ne se font plus la guerre Je t'écris d'un pays tout petit petit Je t'écris d'un coin de ma folie Un pays pas encha...

Virgin Prunes - Theme For Thought

Theme For Thought https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24rVDxFpZrA (Alternative live lyrics are given in parentheses) Should I talk the way you want me to talk Say the things the way you want to hear them I know a lot of people like that They talk in words but what do they mean (They think in words and words alone) When heart becomes a chain, painted like a whore (And sometimes, sometimes, words they betray me) (She says to me with her questionnaire “Answer this Take this one” I say one thing I say I say, I say... One thing) And I see her, see whore They cannot see what they don’t have so deny that time But there’s one thing, one thing I have, one thing I see Why should I be like you? Nothing is ever the way you say it is Nothing is ever the way you want it So don’t talk to me Don’t look at me But please stay with me “He didn’t wear his scarlet robe, for blood and wine are red And blood and wine were on his hands, when they found him with the dead The poor d...
