Ever thought if you could live without your skin?
And go to a place not far from here?
I can take you there, close your eyes

In the middle of the night you wake
Drop of blood running down your face
The mark on your wrist means you're chosen now

Take a step through the misty grey
Down the path where the spirit waits
Put your feet into the water now

Take me back down to the river
Take me back down where the spirit floats
Separate the ghost

Joined together in the atmosphere
The spirit hand takes away your fear
You let go, the dream takes over now

Take me back down to the river
Take me back down where the spirit floats
Separate the ghost

Spirit realm, is there room for me?
Spirit realm, will you take these chains?
Spirit realm, is there room for me?

Ever thought if you could live without your skin?
And go to a place not far from here?
I can take you there, close your eyes

A big thank you to https://soundcloud.com/joerxworx for playing nearly all instruments, arranging and mixing, it was a  pleasure to collab.

Lines in inverted commas quote René Girard (1923 - 2015), also the title of the song points to him.

Mimetic Desire

Man is the creature
Man is the creature

„Man is the creature
Who does not know
What to desire,
And he turns to others
In order to make up his mind.“ (2)

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Mimetic desires

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere
A shadow of a hope ?

Let me have it, let me, let me have it
Let me have it, let me, let me have it

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don’t let the blindness guide you
Even if it is full of shiny, 
Sparkling, mimetic desires

„We desire 
What others desire
Because we imitate 
Their desires."

Maybe there is still 
A shadow of a hope out there
Isn’t there still somewhere hanging out
A shadow of a hope ?

Man is the creature…
Man is the creature…

Don't let the darkness blind you
Don't let the blindness guide you
Don’t let the darkness blind you…

I made this song while the time of pandemic. This is a kind of requiem…believing in the spirit

Lyrics
Maybe I just want to see
When we’re together along
Still my eyeing keep on always

How I save your life?
There's oceans lie to see
I will be waiting for...
Couldn’t save your life

Horizon far away stands before me
Dreaming on about down befalling
Closing my eyes in too darkness
What do you see? because I cant tell you how…
 I know we won’t cry
 I heard your voice with no sound

——————————————————————
Maybe I just want to see you again
When we’re together along
Still my eyeing keep on always

How I save your life?
There's oceans lie to see
I will be waiting for...
Couldn’t save your life

Horizon far away stands before me
Dreaming on about down befalling
Closing my eyes in too darkness
What do you see? because I cant tell you how…
 I know we won’t cry
 I heard your voice with no sound
So it tears me upside down
 I heard your voice is no sound

Lyrics:
Verse 1
Laying here ‘till morning when the sun comes up
Laying with my face down in the dusty ground
Feeling so hung over on the verge of breakup
I need one more drink. Let’s have another whip round

Verse 2
Cold emotion sems to play us a game
Who am I to criticise and who am I to blame
Here am I where my heart burns so hot
I’m losing my mind. I’m losing the plot

Middle 8
I need a little comfort to keep my heart warm
I need another drink to face the fire storm
‘cause when I come home, the levee will break
The ground will move and the house will shake

Verse 3
I thought about work, but it seems such a chore
Look at the neighbour who’s living next door
Rises at dawn with curtains still drawn
I close my eyes and try to ignore

Verse 4 
I’ll lay down my heart now and lay down my soul
I’m better off living without job control
No cent to my name. Life’s just a card game
We all end up in a six foot hole.

Ideas and thoughts

Another whip round

This song is for anyone who has been in a relationship with a narcissistic or toxic person. As anyone who has been in a relationship with a narcissist knows, it is incredibly painful. Years can be wasted staying stuck in the relationship triangle of frustration, self-pity or believing you can fix them. When you finally realize that the only way to move forward is to completely cut them out of your life forever you are on the first steps to freedom. Expressing the anger you feel from all the abuse and time wasted is the first step to healing. Hope this song can help you to feel it’s okay to be angry.

The Time Has Come

Can't Hear You

Influenced by the brilliant work (Dark Sitar) of The Pharmaceutical Phaggot, some Sitar in this track. Main stringed is mandolin. TPP refused to transact a ludicrous deal I proposed some weeks ago, by which I offered TPP,  in part exchange for his Sitar, a banjo playing rodent (so far as he knew). Following the collapse of what would have been a transaction to remember, I therefore had to make my own Sitar.... from commonly available household items (mostly stuff found in a drawer marked 'pieces of string too small for use'). The link to TPP's brilliancy is here: https://soundcloud.com/pharmaceutical_phaggot/dark-sitar
