Lyrics as Poetry - “Sometime around Midnight”, The Airborne Toxic Event

Published by Maleghast under music, poetry

And it starts…
Sometime around midnight
Or at least that’s when
You lose yourself
For a minute or two

As you stand…
Under the barlights
And the band plays some song
About forgetting yourself for a while
And the piano’s this melancholy soundcheck
To her smile
And that white dress she’s wearing
You haven’t seen her
For a while

But you know…
That she’s watching
She’s laughing, she’s turning
She’s holding her tonic like a cross
The room suddenly spinning
She walks up and asks how you are
So you can smell her perfume
You can see her lying naked in your arms

And so there’s a change…
In your emotions
And all of these memories come rushing
Like feral waves to your mind
Of the curl of your bodies
Like two perfect circles entwined
And you feel hopeless, and homeless
And lost in the haze
Of the wine

And she leaves…
With someone you don’t know
But she makes sure you saw her
She looks right at you and bolts
As she walks out the door
Your blood boiling
Your stomach in ropes
And when your friends say what is it
You look like you’ve seen a ghost

And you walk…
Under the streetlights
And you’re too drunk to notice
That everyone is staring at you
And you so care what you look like
The world is falling
Around you

You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her
You just have to see her

And you know that she’ll break you
In two

Learning new things…

Published by Maleghast under Photography, travel

I posted some more pictures from Cape Town last night before heading for bed, specifically the pictures that I am pleased with from our excursion up Signal Hill to watch the sunset, and one of my contacts on Flickr tagged this picture:

Twilight Shooting

with a term that I had never heard before - Rückenfigur

As such I have joined a group about it on Flickr and added the picture to their Group Pool; I like learning new things…

If you want to know more about it, then click here …

You can see the most recently uploaded pictures on here, or Flickr - there will be more later today, or tomorrow…

Quick question…

Published by Maleghast under Gigs

Anyone out there interested in going to see The Airborne Toxic Event in Oxford (Jericho Tavern) on Monday 17th of Nov?

( http://www.theairbornetoxicevent.com/ )

I am going to book the tickets tomorrow at some point, essentially they’ll be £7 a head, if you are in or able to get to Reading I will be driving, first come, first served re lifts…

More on South Africa to follow, but I am trying to get some early nights in readiness for a marathon w/e, so don’t expect too much ;-)

Laters!

Quick post…

Published by Maleghast under Uncategorized

Hello All,

Just a quick post to say that SA has been great so far, and the last couple of days in Joburg promise to be great too.

Sorry that the promised v-log entries have not been forthcoming, but the level of internet access has not been what I expected.  There has been filming, mostly by Morgan, and so there will be a couple of short films once I have had a chance to do some editing, and I will be doing a round-up video blog on my return to the UK…

I hope all are well, I will be back up to date with various communities like LJ, Facebook, Vox etc. just as soon as I find a way to stop time!!
