"Our hearts will rewrite history to the tempo of a beat, a heartbeat.. history will be written with life, not death. There will be no dirge, only songs for the living that breathe soft beats into existence.."

Life is the most beautiful song, a string of heartbeats to the sound of your voice for years, decades, near a hundred or so.. the beauty of that song is up to you, what kind of song will you play - eUë

Being able to listen to Human Fly by The Cramps from recording back when they debuted it in 78' is so uncanny to me.

The Dirge

Granite memory, in cold winter winds Memories of love gone sour Here they lie, on forgotten fields Dearly departed, how I miss you Haunted by your movements Cold and shaky, I lament On the absence of your touch The shadow of you in my bed Waking up to work, a distraction With so many looks of sorrow People pity how much I've fallen Into the hole you dug Long and dark, no foreseeable end Infected by the ghost of your smiles Unmovable forces of nature They give me Goosebumps I shiver in the bed where you once lay Sore wounds of your gaze My heart tugs at this very recollection Red, your favourite colour How you proudly wore it on you In the night, I see no stars To behold or treasure It’s been months since we were two I sang at the very funeral of our friendship A dirge- others grew bored at this Frustrated, they don’t understand How I stay this way, unwilling to change You’re in the music I loved Washing me away to those melodies Reminding me of a time long gone by Forever out of reach, over the hills
