Lyrics for In The Black Room by Hammill Peter:
| | | Artist: | Hammill Peter |
| | Album: | Chameleon In The Shadow Of The Night | | Track: | In The Black Room | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 107 | | | | Lyrics: | I was thinking about thinking but it really didn't get me very far,
so I thought I'd throw a
Tarot but I only got the Priestess and the Star.
There's a shadow cast between the future and
the past:
the room and I agree to buy some time...
The cards don't tell truth nor
lies,
only options and cusp lines
the furniture in the black room.
I've been
thinking abour acid, but, it seem there's not a reason toÛbelieve.
I don't make a vital
breakthrough and it walks me like a dog upon a lead.
It's all unreal and, the way I
feel,
I'd like to try and make it on my own...
Going to the feeling is find:
I really
have me a good pleasure cruise.
But, deep in my mind,
I'm no better or worse, just open to
the walls.
Paint peels in the black of my room
I'm only talking about myself,
ordering my treasure shell,
documenting these present feelings as the future sets me
reeling...
What I'll be is what I am,
I'm simply trying not to sham or fake.
Use
vision as sense and not as crutch!
It doesn't mateer all that much;
whatever happens we'll
all survive.
I'm only trying not to pawn my life.
When I'm (maybe) old and
strait-laced, shall I then deny all that I feel?
In words of bitter compromise, re-smelt the
wrath that's in my eyes
like steel?
Be a hermit then?
Or be a miser?
Be a man
who hasn't managed yet to write his rules?
The Fool?
The future holds my hand in the
room...
Well, then my ghosts shall steer down through the years
and lay a hand upon my
soul
