lead song from my newest album: 'long way home'
Story behind the song
baudelaire, rimbaud, borges and cohen sat down in the dark corner of a bar and conspired to infiltrate my nightmares
Lyrics
take the time to wind down the clock above your bed
never mind the voices crying loudly in your head
what would you say to them anyway?
make the space to fit in the dreams you never had
pay no heed to those who say the things you never said
how would you answer them anyway?
and if it takes a whole bottle
and if it takes the whole night
and if it takes the whole bottle
of pills, of pain, of a stranger’s love
would that be enough?
open up your spirit to the those roads you never took
the ever-forking path, the hedge and crystal brook
where would you go anyway?
the serpent tongue that quietly whispers in your ear
sweet nothings tempt you slowly year after year
how much time do you have anyway?
and if it takes a whole bottle
and if it takes the whole night
and if it takes the whole bottle
of pills, of pain, of a stranger’s love
would that be enough?
