Though you knew it was wrong
The rule from their book
Was that love wasn’t given
It was something you took

No-one told you the rules 
To the back garden games
The kings and the queens
The fight and the shame

Finding your way
Can you withstand
Then and today
Can you withstand

All that heaven sends 

The thin northern light
It gave you no warmth
But maybe together
We can weather the storm

Finding your way
Can you withstand
Then and today
Can you withstand

All that heaven sends

All That Heaven Sends

Tuscan hills wreathed in sunlight
Painted words lead up the stairs
A self regard in broken beauty
Endangered all for whom you cared
Breaking ground, you run for cover
So what if you’re scared

Branches bending in the weather
Make the tree a different shape
Meaning well makes no difference
From that there’s no escape
Breaking ground, you run for cover
So fucking what if you’re scared

Its such a shame
Its such a shame
Its such a shame
(This is part, this is part of the problem)
Its such a shame
(This is part, this is part of the problem).

Shame

Everyone is beautiful
Everyone is great
Everyone is special
They just self-impersonate
 
Edited, curated
Resized and blown right up
Hairbrushed and airbrushed
I’d like to touch them up
 
The movement of her hips
The way your mood just flips
The pits, the stones and pips
The teeth behind the lips
 
Everyone is better
Everyone is great
I’ll follow to the letter
We darkly gravitate
 
 
Wrong? What’s wrong?
What’s wrong with me?
I’m just no captain of industry
Wrong? What’s wrong? 
What’s wrong with me?
Why don’t my hair curl naturally?

Everyone is better
Everyone is great
I’ll follow to the letter
We darkly gravitate

Cover of the Depeche Mode song.

I don't own the rights to this music. The music and lyrics were written by Martin Gore of Depeche Mode.

The Things You Said

The General's Memory Isn't What It Was

I couldn’t sleep. And I had this extract of Werner Herzog, the german film and opera director, talking about how much he hated chickens. So I did the obvious thing. I did what any sane person would do. I made a dub track out of it.

Extract of Werner Herzog's very particular opinion about chickens used, to which I do not own the rights. But I get the impression that he wouldn't really mind.

Chicken Dub

enjoy!
!!used sample for instrumental 
background shouting from youtube!!

look in the fractured mirror

The eye holds steady 
Pulling in the light
Held still in the air
By the effort of flight

Tiny adjustments
In constant thrill
All of this movement
To stay so still

Fatal arcs of the body
Coiled against motion
Snapping death into life
In the instant of notion 

Brittle limbs against the concrete wind

The moment of release
The fall into ecstasy
Letting go of everything 
But gravity

Kestrel

Seeing means, usually, you open your eyes and you look to the outside world.
You can see another way.
You close your eyes and you look in to your inner world.
And I believe the best to do is to have one eye closed and you look inside and this is the inner world. 
With the other eye, you have it fixed on reality, on what is going on around, in the world.
If you can make a kind of a synthesis of these two important worlds, you come to a result which can be considered as a synthesis of objective and subjective life.
