somewhen is now and sometime soon
somewhen before will be then too
Somewhen, somehow, some peace is war
sometimes you have to know before you do
i need to start this fire
alice was a man who never saw the fuss
a word is a word is a domino
and god is obvious
somewhen is now, somewhere and somehow
I flew through the night, that American light
oh The sky was black, but The field white
i need to start this fire
don’t make me stop
But it’s my last chance, to let you know
Double days to love a lot, double days are all we got
The bird that bent us backwards says
How do you don’t ?
The world is having a heart attack
So where the fuck is Superman ! (Superman!)
i need to start this fire
don’t make me stop
give me the peace of another
don’t stop……give me the peace,
the electric’s out in the city zone….
somewhen is now !

alone among the cedar trees
a forest full of memories
that hid beneath the channel flow
we need to find someone to show
three to three
talk to me
three to three
we are free
alone we wander through the hills
in time but only time stands still
for someone who could love someone
the fighting’s only just begun
three to three
talk to me
three to three
we are free

a certaiN sorrow
05:32
|

|
all around us more and more
lies a certain sorrow
and the clouds coming over
has come around so fast
all around us more and more
lies a certain sorrow
and it seems so much colder
all around us more and more
and the man on the corner
is carting collectibles
his borrowed, red, blistered engaging face
and he’s carried his sorrow
for half of his life
and he feels the cold carry him into the night
into night - into the night
all around us more
lies a certain sorrow
when you’re far away and isolated
we howl through the night
when your love is sleeping agitated
these things cannot be right
they can’t be right
they can’t be right
a pressure builds round his temple
the dryness forms on his tongue
his vision turn from tired to blurry
move him out into the sun
every night in Baghdad
and every day in Palestine
the soul of our humanity
is hung out from the power line
and as the world inches closer
as the satellite comes through
we turn our back on catastrophe
but there’s no escaping
it’s plainly there to see for me and you
can’t you feel the strange abrasions
can’t you see where the tracks are joined
can’t you feel these unique frustrations
they belie it all
belie it all
all around us more and more
lies a certain sorrow

the sun will shine
the rain will fall
the tears you cry
you can only wait
do you love the loveless
do you dare to love the loveless
the air you breathe
the food you eat
the fire that burns
pain you feel
do you love the loveless
do you dare to love the loveless
over rivers
over bridges
cover story
cover stitches
into pieces
into shreds
come alive
love is dead

(melt)
slow heartbeat melts, I’m gliding to you
midnight blue, rich and pale
your face hits the moon
99%pure
(burning,frozen)
kiss the skin
the skin she’s hiding in
wearing a shade of you
a secret sign, of your tattoo
my love is blind
too blind to care
99% pure
(downstairs)
(melt, pale, moon, face, melt, words, moon, face)
and your stroboscope ghost
reminds me of you
reminds me of you
99% pure
(kiss, shapes)
until we saw that sun
pouring through the moon
we always knew that some of these were memories
a kiss, burning in the snow
all the shapes at dawn
always knew that some of these memories
some of these were burned out memories
99% pure
see through you, see through me
(betwixt)

sitting here with your walls around me
a song no-one hears
like a echo of life
i want to disappear
if you say it doesn’t matter
it will matter more to me
just sitting here
a beach beside the sea
my body is a cage
age multiplied by rage
my legs were first to fill
my head eventually will
pick a reflection of your choice
dive into the sea
some wounds aren’t meant to heal
just to teach us how to feel
on the borders of time and space
i still see your face
my body is a cage
age multiplied by rage
my legs were first to fill
my head eventually will
this cage is me
I’m breathing in
I’m breaking out
this cage is me
this cage is me
I’m breathing out
I’m breaking in
if you say it doesn’t matter
it will matter more to me
just sitting here
a beach beside the sea
my head eventually will….

Hammy, Hammy...….oh god
where have all the people gone
i can’t feel my body
i can’t see my body
there’s no one here ?
just this music in my ears
this is it is it ?
this is it !
heaven or hell
oh god, that’s it
that’s what happens
when you die, you don’t die
you just get stuck with you
forever
i get it, i get it
so that’s heaven or it’s hell
but it’s all you’ve got
the you that you made when you were alive
you just sit with that
you just sit with that
forever
sit with that
that’s what they were trying to tell us
heaven or hell
what’s this music ?
do you think i can kind of climb back on that little bit of time solid
over there and…..
you know that little gully i can see up there
just on the left of the glacier
maybe i could climb back in
i don’t think that’s allowed
it’s very beautiful here
there are some words you only say when you are praying
like trespasses
hello forever

this crazy world we are born into
we live in countries made of war
name me a country that wasn’t made by war
or survived through war
but in those countries we have religions
that believe in god
lots of different religions all believing in the same god
but differently and they all say
the other ones are wrong and we are right
they’re all different doors leading to the same room
but they will fight to the death
to make you go through their door
telling you all the other doors
are wrong or locked
or lead over the cliff
it’s all about being right
they talk peace but they make war
you’ve got to read the semaphore

The Entire City
by Gazelle Twin
I think it is one of my most played albums of recent years.

I was always a big fan of the Cabs so anything Mr Mallinder is involved in always captures my interest. This album has also introduced me to the fantastic John Grant.
