It’s Your Life
It’s Your Life
by Milla Jovovich
We had this dream
Locked behind these wicked thoughts
You and i
We felt pain
Passed from him, to me, to you
Reaching out
Into the empty space
We lost our place
It’s your life
It’s your soul
It’s everything
You give to him
It’s my heart
In your hands
Keep it or just let it fall
Another stone
Placed in my wall
I brush away
The flaming hair across your cheek
To see these eyes
That lit my life
Now they’re cold and dark and gone
With your smile
I’ll cross this hopeless line
But don’t waste time
It’s your life
It’s your soul
It’s everything
You give to him
It’s my heart
In your hands
Keep it or just let it fall
Another stone
Placed in my wall
It’s your life
It’s your mind
Choices that you make my love
It’s my heart in your hands
Keep it or just let it fall
Another stone placed in my wall
Can’t we see above
This wall?
When I close my eyes, I am at the center of the sun
Center of the Sun
by Conjure One
Young girl in the market
Music to the men
When the men leave
Her eyes are red
When her eyes are closed again she sees the dark market of above
And she sings
‘They say the most horrible things
But I hear violins, when I close my eyes
I am at the center of the sun
And I cannot be hurt
By anything this wicked world has done’
Young boy in the market
Follows all the men
When the men leave
He’s out of his head
When his eyes are closed again he sees the dark market of above
And he sings
‘They break the most beautiful things
But I hear violins, when I close my eyes
I am at the center of the sun
And I cannot be hurt
By anything this wicked world has done
I look into your eyes
And I am at the center of the sun
And I cannot be hurt
By anything this wicked world has done’
Center of the sun
Young boy in the market
Sees the girl alone
And asks her
‘Have you lost your way home?’
She sings
‘You say the most beautiful things, just like my violins’
I look into your eyes
I am at the center of the sun
And I cannot be hurt
By anything this wicked world has done
When I close my eyes
I am at the center of the sun
And I cannot be hurt
By anything this wicked world has done
‘Cause
I hear violins
I hear violins
I hear violins
I hear violins
Center of the sun

be strong
be hard

stick your hand in your eye
close your fist
resist
flex your muscles
walk on this line
look straight ahead
flex your muscles
be hard

Dead Can Dance – American Dreaming
I need my conscience to keep watch over me
To protect me from myself
So I can wear honesty like a crown on my head
When I walk into the promised land
We’ve been too long American dreaming
And I think we all lost the way
Forlorn somnambulistic maniacal in the dark
I’m in love with an American girl
Though she’s my best friend
I love her surreptitious smile
That hides the feelings within her
And we’ll go dancing in the rings of laughter
And live along by the shores Read the rest of this entry »
Peter Gabriel: The Power of the Heart
This is a beautiful live performance of The Power of the Heart by Peter Gabriel, with the New Blood Orchestra.
You and me we sweat and strain
You look for sun and I look for rain
We’re different people, we’re not the same
The power of the sun
I looked for treetops, you looked for caps
Above the water, where the waves snap back
I flew around the world to bring you back
Ahh, the power of the heart Read the rest of this entry »
Swans- The Seer – Album Review
Here’s a really interesting review of the recent Swans album, the Seer. Seems like the Swans are getting back to the level they were in their previous phase. Makes me want to pick it up.
We are the Children of the Sun
Children of the Sun
We are ancients
As ancient as the sun
We came from the ocean
Once our ancestral home
So that one day
We could all return
To our birthright
The great celestial dome
