Left Alone…

 

This is the sound beating of my loves

Good down, I’m for long
Got my word to be someone
Good down, that’s alright
All I want is to be left alone
Left alone, left alone, left alone
Left alone, left alone, left alone
Left alone, left alone, left alone
Left alone,

Cannot swallow blue found vow
More than that my sleep is wild
All I need is suffering bones
Breathe in sorrow
Gonna watch you fake it now
Will I freak can I calm down
And I take it all at a loss
Breathe in sorrow
Gonna watch you fake it now
Will I freak can I calm down
And I take it all at a loss
Breathe out sorrow

Gonna find them peace in loss
Holding by the knees and vow
I can always feel this proud
Breathe out sorrow
Oh I tell you something more
What my brain is bleeding for
And it hurts my darling, but breathe out sorrow
Gonna find them peace in loss
Holding by the knees and vow
I can’t always feel this proud
Breathe out sorrow
Oh, I tell you something more
What my brain is bleeding for
And it hurts my darling, but breathe out sorrow

Column 3 –  Bear, Snake and Mountain.

Something or someone from abroad is a negative in my life.

Diagonal 1 – Fox, Letters and Mountain.

I need to be more sly in relation to news awaited about something abroad.

Diagonal 2 –  Bear, Letters and Book.

News awaited about the unknown is big and important.

Summary

This is the sixth week in a row the Child has appeared which isn’t surprising since my children have been at the forefront of my mind of late. According to this reading one is deceiving me in a spectacular fashion.

In addition to this the Fox is indicating my need to be a bit more cunning over the course of the week, news awaited is on its way which may be linked to my love life in addition to something else that remains unknown. There is reference to my trip overseas (Mountain) which I leave for on Friday and generally big things are afoot (Bear).

Deception (Fox) and news (Letters) appear to be the key elements.

It’s Ratchet…

When I was pregnant with my first child I spent an hour lining up for tickets for Bloc Party who were my flavour of the year at the time. The gig was about six to eight weeks later and even the knowledge that I would be almost eight months pregnant at the gig didn’t detract from my utter excitement Fast forward to the week of the gig…and I’m sick. Really sick. I ended up taking time off of work to sleep as much as I could in between the delirium I was experiencing. The day of the gig I woke up at about 3pm, showered, washed my hair, got dressed, walked into the lounge room and proclaimed to my then partner that we were going that night because I was feeling better. He said “no.” I regressed to a two-year old and threw a tantrum. There were profanities, tears and some foot stamping, but he wouldn’t change his mind. Defeated, I accepted that it wasn’t happening and tried to give the tickets away to no avail so I went back to bed and promptly fell asleep. When I woke up it was about 9pm and I knew my fever had finally broken. By then it was too late to go to Bloc Party. So I stayed home and tried to ignore the tickets that were being wasted. To say that I had gotten over this disappointment would be a blatant lie for all I’ve managed to do is push it to the far recesses of my mind only bringing out the memory every time Bloc Party tour Australia and I don’t go for some reason or another. As at today, I still haven’t seen them live and really, really want to. In a similar scenario as Chet Faker’s Lesson in Patience Bloc Party are on the line up for FYF Fest. This little stroke of luck after almost seven years has me with a wide smile on my dial, and with only ten days until FYF kicks off, I’m just a little bit excited to see Kele and whatever boys now make up the rest of Bloc Party! Squeeeeeeee!

Hyper Ballad…

a-black-white-image-of-a-person-standing-at-the-edge-of-a-cliff-looking-over-the-fjord

we live on a mountain
right at the top
there’s a beautiful view
from the top of the mountain
every morning i walk towards the edge
and throw little things off
like:
car-parts, bottles and cutlery
or whatever i find lying around

it’s become a habit
a way
to start the day

i go through this
before you wake up
so i can feel happier
to be safe up here with you

it’s real early morning
no-one is awake
i’m back at my cliff
still throwing things off
i listen to the sounds they make
on their way down
i follow with my eyes ’til they crash
imagine what my body would sound like
slamming against those rocks

and when it lands
will my eyes
be closed or open?

i’ll go through all this
before you wake up
so i can feel happier
to be safe up here with you

Coffee & TV…

 IMG_8640

Do you feel like a chain store?
Practically floored
One of many zeros
Kicked around bored
Your ears are full but your empty
Holding out your heart
To people who never really
Care how you are

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I’ve seen so much
I’m goin blind
And i’m braindead virtually
Sociability
It’s hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

Do you go to the country
It isn’t very far
There’s people there who will hurt you
Cos of who you are

Your ears are full of the language
There’s wisdom there you’re sure
‘Til the words start slurring
And you can’t find the door

So give me Coffee and TV
History
I’ve seen so much
I’m goin blind
And i’m braindead virtually
Sociability
It’s hard enough for me
Take me away from this big bad world
And agree to marry me
So we can start all over again

Oh…we could start over again

Song of the Year? Part 3

As the year plods along and more new music is released a few additional songs have made their way into my heart and into the running for my song of the year.

Whilst Hermitude’s The Buzz initially had me all abuzz (sorry) when I first heard it, it is Searchlight that has struck a chord leaving a lasting impression.

Major Lazer can do no wrong at the best of times (think Jessica, Get Free just to name two) and with Lean On they’ve proven how unbelievable they truly are.
