Across clinical benches with nothing to talk Breathing tea and biscuits and the Serenity Prayer While the bones of our child crumble like chalk O where do we go now but nowhere

Nick Cave, “Where Do We Go Now But Nowhere?” from The Boatman’s Call

I'll never believe in an interventionist God again.

And I'll never believe in the existence of Angel again. But I know, it's true. But if I did, I would kneel down, and ask Them to take this Cup away from me, and put an end to this Pain. And to walk, with the help of Christ, in Grace and Peace, if I can't in Love. At least in this Life.

It's you, who I should never have believed.

"On my fingers lingers the smell, Of her deep black hair.

Full of all my whispered words, Her black hair. And wet with tears and goodbyes, Her hair of deepest black. All my tears cried against, Her milk-white throat. Hidden behind the curtain, Of her beautiful black hair.

As deep as ink and black, Black as the deepest sea. The smell of her black hair, Upon my pillow Where her head and all its Black hair did rest. Today she took a train to the West"

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, "Black Hair"

(The Boatman's Call, 1997)

"And if He felt He had to direct you, Then direct you Into My Arms"

Sunday, November 8th. 22:02. Same time. Another message from you. I thought we said goodbye.

Monday, November 9th. 01:33 a.m.

Another your "goodnight song" for me.

What do you want tell me?

I'm scared.

"I don’t believe in an interventionist God But I know, darling, that you do But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him Not to intervene when it came to you Not to touch a hair on your head To leave you as you are And if He felt He had to direct you Then direct you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms

And I don’t believe in the existence of angels But looking at you I wonder if that’s true But if I did I would summon them together And ask them to watch over you To each burn a candle for you To make bright and clear your path And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love And guide you into my arms

Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms

But I believe in Love And I know that you do too And I believe in some kind of path That we can walk down, me and you So keep your candles burning And make her journey bright and pure That she will keep returning Always and evermore

Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms"

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - “Into My Arms” (1997)

In a career full of incredible songs, “Into My Arms” may be one of Nick Cave’s best. Released in January 1997 as the first single for Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ tenth studio album, The Boatman’s Call, the song was voted as Cave’s second best song by Mojo magazine in 2023. A plain-spoken and devastatingly emotional song, written while he was in rehab, it has been covered multiple times, and Cave performed the song at the funeral of his friend Michael Hutchence of INXS.

Definitely one of my favorite parts of Bag a Legend

#balposting #Charlie got two good bites in #he tried to call fires a fool but didn’t get the voice quite right so it caught on and sent him straight to the boatman #oc: the blithe sharpshooter

Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds: A Post-Punk Beacon of Peace

In the eclectic world of post-punk music, few bands have managed to leave an indelible mark quite like Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. Formed in 1983, this Australian rock band has traversed the realms of gothic rock, experimental rock, and art rock, all while maintaining a distinctive post-punk edge. But beyond their genre-defying music, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, along with other post-punk…
