About Me |
|
Imagine the hot, restless dead-weight of the air the moment before a huge thunderstorm storm is about to break now imagine the Sky About to Rain I apologise if I do not respond to everyone that messages me on here. I am so overwhelmed with the amount of e-mails, comments, and messages that are sent to me here and I really do appreciate all of your support. I never. for one moment. thought it would ever get like this as I sat and quietly strummed my guitar and sang into a microphone 10 years ago and, really, it’s kinda weirda but... if love exists on the internet at all then I do love you all. Thank you so very much.Martyn (SATR) Somebody’s been talking about me Somebody’s been walking through my fever Every day And taking all the words I stored up Knocking down the wall that I shored against the night Every night Now the sky turns blue And the daybreak hits my eye The full moon’s gone and The riverbed’s run dry Somebody’s been talking about me Giving them cause to doubt me Running me down Somebody’s been living on rumours Somebody’s been living on the ghosts of all my lies And looking through my photographs and Breathing on the dreams I thought of yesterday Only yesterday And picking up pieces of the woman he used to be And filling in holes that the man in her set free Somebody got a lot of things they need to repay Somebody got a lot of time to spare Somebody got something to forgive me for Somebody better be beware Somebody’s been selling my soul now For a gun and a purse of gold And I don’t know why Cause there’s a shadow at the top of the stairway There’s a face at the bottom of the garden haunting me Every day And picking up pieces of the woman he used to be And filling in holes that the man in her set free Arizona Rise, the official Sky About to Rain Website http://theskyabouttorain.com/ Cocaine and roses Lay across my bed With Arizona radio Trippin’ through my head Forget LA, and forget cocaine All the creatures in the desert took shelter from The sky about to rain A story full of heartbreak and desire And I had a dream that I was sleeping As weightless as words that she had said I couldn’t begin to remember my name With gravity deep inside my head Do not confront me with my failures I have not forgotten them ...so I headed down to Mexico with a bible and a gun... Somebody’s been selling my soul now For a gun and a purse of gold And I don’t know why ’Cause there’s a shadow at the top of the stairway There’s a face at the bottom of the garden haunting me I am the blizzard, I am the snow I am the river, I am the flow I am the shadow, you’ll never know I am the secret, you are the low I am the powder you can’t refuse I am the headline in your morning news I am the chamber that you had to choose I am the powder, I am the fuse I am the fuse I am the fuse I am the fuse I am the fuse I am the red lights flashing in the rain I am the siren born in a hurricane I am the morning star upon your window pane I am the warning, I am the flame I am the outlaw, and I’ll catch you where you run I am the terror in the barrel of a gun I am the darkness in the world without sun I am your sorrow when your working day is done You are the word that’s been wasted on the page You are the thief, imprisoned in the cage You are the singer, frightened by the stage You are the worker wedded to the wage I am the water, whenever you are drowned I am the pistol that never makes a sound I am the lover who brings you to the ground I am the man who always comes around I am the fuse I am the fuse I am the fuse I am the fuse… I got chains round my arms and legs now I got holes where my memory used to be I got tears in my eyes now honey I’m sitting here with a darkness over me |

The devil at my back

Hoping for salvation but
I was thinking I was dead
