Good Omens Song of the Day

"Befriend my cold silence

I try not to lose my mind

I listen quietly to hear you sing

And I will drain the rivers just for you

The clouds inhale me to make it all come true"

"And when I dream, I dream for you

And when I'm lost, I'm lost for you

And when I pray, I pray for you

And when I fail, I fail for you"

Lyrics

Befriend my cold silence

I try not to lose my mind

I listen quietly to hear you sing

And I will drain the rivers just for you

The clouds inhale me to make it all come true

I see, I feel, I shatter

Too painful to admit

Alone with my demons

Alone with myself

I cannot believe I got lost in this hell

Forgive me tomorrow

I live for today

I try to forgive myself for just one moment

I'm wide awake when I'm asleep

And when I dream, I dream for you

And when I'm lost, I'm lost for you

And when I pray, I pray for you

And when I fail, I fail for you

Artist associations: Watcher Szeverin

To me he exemplifies the affinities of German Gothic romanticism as exemplified by Caspar David Friedrich and the Grimm brothers, South American magical realism such as Borges, Surrealism, and the Faustian spirit captured by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Authors, Poets, Philosophers: Hermann Hesse, Rainer Maria Rilke, Franz Kafka, Jorge Luis Borges, Fernando Pessoa, Haruki Murakami, Carl Gustav Jung, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Musicians, Painters: Covenant, Diary of Dreams, Kent, Project Pitchfork, Mew, Mariusz Lewandowski, Zdzisław Beksiński, Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, Nicola Samori, Caspar David Friedrich.

He's always got one foot in the dream world, with a constant desire to experience the numinous, the divine and the treacherous, to engage in soul-stirring beauty and to be a traveler of the soul and the mind just as much as he is a traveler of the body.

A spiritual warrior who finds beauty in the strange and the unnatural, and someone who is not afraid of the figurative or literal darkness, but instead embraces it.

.:Music!:.

Lost in words of anticipation

Lost in words of revelations

23 and 5 resulting

Equally absorbed their sigh

And I need my chemicals

I need your chemicals

Are my dreams gone?

Are my words forgiven?

Are my deeds undone?

Am I now forgiven?

The walls of this chamber

Were made to set you free

So soft, so clean

My friend, where have you been

And I need my chemicalsI need your chemicals

Are my dreams gone?

Are my words forgiven?

Are my deeds undone?

Am I now forgiven?

And I need my chemicals

I need your chemicals

I'm a revolutionary

A christian fairy tale

I'm a missionary

A visionary anarchist ((screams Orochimaru))

I'm a full moon fever

I'm a non-believer

I have hope and I regret

I accept and I neglect

And I need my chemicals

I need your chemicals

Are my dreams gone?

Are my words forgiven?

Are my deeds undone?

Am I now forgiven?

And I need my chemicalsI need your chemicals

Are my dreams gone?

Are my words forgiven?

Are my deeds undone?

Am I now forgiven?

And I need my chemicals

I need your chemicals

Good Omens Song of the Day

This song describes Crowley so well its heartbreaking

"Lass mich los und lass mich fallen Es wird hell in Eden

Let me go And let me fall It's getting light in Eden

Fang mich auf und sprich ganze leise Sag mir, alles wird gut

Catch me And speak softly Tell me it's alright"

Lyrics English and German

Hell in Eden/Light in Eden

Lass mich los und lass mich fallen Es wird hell in Eden

Let me go And let me fall It's getting light in Eden

Fang mich auf und sprich ganze leise Sag mir, alles wird gut

Catch me And speak softly Tell me it's alright

Immer auf dem Weg immer auf der Hut Immer einsam und doch nie allein

Always on the move Always on my guard Always lonesome And yet never alone

Immer auf der Flucht doch nie angekommen An einem Ort um mein Leben gerannt

Always on the run But never arrived Anywhere I've run for my life

Immer am Abgrund und weitergerannt Weiter und weiter die Zeichen verkannt

Always on the edge And carried on On and on Misread the signs

Weitergelaufen weiterverbannt Weiterversteckt doch niemand erkannt

Walked on Banished away Always hidden But recognized no one

Weitergezogen ohne Verstand Ich bin nicht mehr ich hab mich umbenannt

Moved on Without understanding I'm no longer me I've changed my name

Gestern und morgen immer gehetzt Worte verschluckt und Bedeutung verschätzt

Yesterday and tomorrow Always hounded Swallowed my words And misjudged their meaning

Araña payaso

Soñé con el hogar de una araña bajo mi cama. Estaba hecho de tuneles de telaraña endurecida y oscurecida, con agujeros por donde podías verla moverse. La araña era grande, casí del mismo tamaño de mi mano, su abdomen negro y abultado, liso pero con patrones de figuras rojo carmín salidas de un test de Rorschach. Sus patas delgadas, como agujas negras... y su rostro, o mejor dicho su cabeza, era espantosa, una cabeza de nenuco con cara de payaso. La araña salía de su escondite y se sentaba en un rincon bajo la cama con el dorso recargado sobre la madera. La araña me dijo viendome a los ojos "mi nombre es p*ta" y yo desperté.
