burn out bright SWITCHFOOT
a spark ignites in time and space; limping through this human race; you bite and claw your way back home; but you're running the wrong way; the future is a question mark; of kerosene and electric sparks; there's still fire in you yet; yeah there's still fire in you!


Clarke's First Law of Prediction: When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right; when he states that something is impossible, he is probably wrong.




the spectator THE BRAVERY
he is a nocturnal always alone; but you'll speak in secret codes; that he has never known; in this world, but not of it; so he watches from above it; a visitor here, this is not home

I am moved by fancies that are curled
around these images, and cling:
the notion of some infinitely gentle
infinitely suffering thing.

funnyman KT TUNSTALL
funnyman, gotta try to be something wonderful; funnyman, listening to the world turning on its sail; turn it into a brand new universe; funnyman could never be anything else.


And in the passage from the cradle to the grave we are born, madly dancing / Rushing headlong through the crashing of the days / We run on and on without a backwards glance / We run on and on without a backwards glance.




standing on the threshold of eternity THE SNAKE THE CROSS THE CROWN
eternity is pressed against my eyelids; by brittle fists that i cannot avoid; and though each finger's grip has been relentless; the moments they just keep on slipping by; and i am now aware that i am and always have been at this moment; sadly sitting by the fire and blue waiting for you; and though ive been expecting; i have never quite accepted that

The time is out of joint: O cursed spite, that ever I was born to set it right!

scientist THE DANDY WARHOLS
in me the scientist, / always stuck on, always trying this. / i try to live on science alone. / analysis and freaky sensitivity, / we've gotta live on science alone.


Those words no one had stated bespoke a time we’d all forgot, / memories all jaded by what since the world had wrought. / but since that’s all calmed down now, to the past we’ll toast a cheer, / the things one can’t remember can’t be the cause of any fear.




last light MATT POND PA
sky hangs heavy in lowest light; as the day slips down past the sun; black and blue in the forest green; shadows are gone, they have run; they have run, they have run, they have run.; as the days last light now is done; in the end we can see perfect endlessness; when we're gone, when we're gone, when we're gone

awake, arise, or be forever fallen.

orange sky ALEXI MURDOCH
sometimes, sometimes; my mind is too strong to carry on; too strong to carry on; when I am alone; when i've thrown off the weight of this crazy stone; when I've lost all care for the things i own; that's when i miss you, that's when i miss you, that's when i miss you; you who are my home; well i had a dream; i stood beneath an orange sky; yes i had a dream; i stood beneath an orange sky; with my brother and my sister standing by



Be humble for you are made of earth. Be noble for you are made of stars.




electioneering RADIOHEAD
i will stop; i will stop at nothing; say the right things; when electioneering; i trust I can rely on your vote; when I go forwards you go backwards and somewhere we will meet

An involuntary return to the point of departure is, without doubt, the most disturbing of all journeys.

airborne MY ARCHITECTS
rise and take what you want; all of the time or never; 'cause you, you could be unkind; if you weren't right all of the time
