lyrics

When The Pylons Were Redundant

we stare out from the wreckage of our homes. we had little anyway, but oh, how we crave those simple things, like hot water from a tap. like garbage collections on a rainy day.

how we weep. how we miss our televisions, our music. yesterday Todd played the CD for the last time and then the batteries died. we walked back to our shells feeling like part of our soul had died. we need new music, sure we do, but the anger is gone and what good is music without passion… all we have are sad songs. as heart rending as the sun setting over horizons of twisted metal.

mother is gone to take water from the seeping pipe, daddy is scavenging out by the tip. we collect the shining remnants from the ruins; we tie crisp bags to branches and hope the leaves will come again one day.

where are the pious men all gone? did they slink to hidden bunkers? there are many, many rumours. our fear is a coiled snake basking in the sun… our hope like eels beached in irradiated muck. the rain no longer comes. the sky is red, the blood turned the earth purple.

where are the lyrics gone? all those hopeful songs, all those pious heroes, those righteous preachers? where is the god of Temples? does he hide in the ruins of the steeple? there are many rumours. the sick wind whispers. we hear echoes of extinction, their voices sing sorrowfully through the abandoned wires and uprooted telephone trees. the pylon is no longer relevant. It is a redundant tree. at night the mosquito clouds lull us to sleep. dreams of palaces, of television and ease.

SaKaC / Spleen / Erebus / RA Serbia

My music is coming from the most secret and dark part of our soul that cannot be seen with the eyes - our primal nature! Dark ambient, experimental, drone musick is conjuring the occult hidden spheres of myself representing complete freedom when viewed from the highest plane of thought. Spleen is escape from the suffering of this world through aesthetic enjoyment, rejecting my humanity. ... more
