lirik lagu nile rivers (nile russo) - life in pandemonium (three years)
[part 1 no.i: positively beaujolais]
i was positively beaujolais
formerly lavender
never in my second year
i was known to be in the company
of eiderdown and gossamer
student of the midwestern grimoire
still i collect my chelsea girls
remember feeling the weight of the world
and gibson girls were doing much of anything at all
just turn their heads a quarter inch and stick them past the wall
[part 2: a brief respite (or seasons of the muse)]
waves of wheat
sheltering trees
join their arms round me
when you find
peace of mind
take your time
you’ll be fine
trust your eyes
so breathe in deep
and sigh
[part 1 no. ii: the crack of dawn]
blue and cast upon the crack of dawn
the branches that we played upon
now tangled at the bottom of the pond
in this way we played ourselves
our radiance don’t fill our shelves
each farewell remaining cast in bronze
still you could find it practical
to keep a knife in the sash for the road
and highwaymen were given exactly what they need
sometimes all it really takes is the confidence to cheat
[part 3: lovely ocean child]
lovely ocean child
sweet tender and mild
will you leave or stay awhile
ocean child
lovely ocean daughter
with her hand in the water
preparing for the slaughter
ocean daughter
[part 4: midwinter]
everyone knows how to turn around
standing on the earth but not solid ground
everyone knows which way to burn
giving it time but not time to learn
wind waving, fading through everything
emerging, engraving, but i don’t feel a thing
that my soul can sing
[part 5: travel weary capricorn]
travel weary worn and tired
the stars that day were dark as wine
in the infinite expanding sky
your pangs recall the clearest night
only when it’s pouring down
beauty spreads from the ground
hiding all but what you’ve found
till you leave for another town
but now, in the springtime
fullness gathering
in the adoring
mm~mmm
(my chelsea girls)
[part 1 no.iii: the third miracle]
was in my madness that i blew the hatch
kept the lock and threw the latch
through the star~bright hours we break our backs
light a candle at the hearth for me
or st. elmo on the open sea
so that the pale faced town may be serene
still i remember miracles
myself and my journey and my will
none of us were thinking life could ever start anew
if this golden world is sinking we may never have a clue
[part 6: music for stargazing]
