In My Darkest Hour

In my hour of need
Ha you're not there
And though I reached out for you
Wouldn't lend a hand

Through the darkest hour
Grace did not shine on me
It feels so cold, very cold
No one cares for me

Did you ever think I got lonely
Did you ever think that I needed love
Did you ever think to stop thinking
You're the only one I'm thinking of...

You'll never know how hard I tried
To find space to satisfy you too

Things will be better when I'm dead and gone
Don't try to understand, knowing you I'm probably wrong

But oh I lived my life for you
Still you'd turn away
Now as I die for you
My flesh still crawls as I breathe your name
All these years I thought I was wrong
Now I know it was you
Raise your head your face your eyes
Tell me who think you are, who?

I walk, I walk alone
Into the promised land

There's a better place for me
But it's far, far away
Everlasting life for me
In a perfect world
But I gotta die first,
Please god send me on my way

Time has a way of taking time
Loneliness is not only felt by fools
Alone I call to ease the pain
Yearning to be held by you
Alone, so alone, I'm lost
Consumed by the pain
The pain, the pain, the pain

Won't you hold me again
You just laughed, ha ha, bitch
My whole life is work built on the past
But the time has come when all things shall pass
This good thing passed away

In my darkest hour

I et tog på vej imod København

... d.17/1-2008

Her i det store kolde nord
Er noget i gære
Alt er ikke som det burde være
Der er trist og goldt
Gråt i stedet for hvidt og koldt

Alt er ikke ved det gamle
Imellem du og jeg, vi har stået lidt for længe i stampe
Været helt væk fra sporet
Og har ofte spurgt os selv, hvorfor vi gjorde, som vi gjorde

Et lys i mørket er dog tændt
En del er alligevel hændt
Det gamle er måske på vej tilbage
Igen kan jeg føle og se dig som min mage

/ufafsluttet...

Tanker 1

Oplevelser
Igennem ild og vand
Nye ting og steder
Sanseindtryk
Krop og sind
Ikke 2, men ét
Sammen
Hvad kunne have været bragt
Hvor mange ting ville have været sket og set
Følt, mærket, oplevet
Hvordan kan et nu forsvinde
Kvaler
Tanker spredt udover uanede arealer
Nogle ting dør, genopstår og ånder videre
Andre forsvinder uden lyd ind i intetheden
Blødende og kold, formørket, fanget i mindernes vold.

You want me to say who I am?

Life as we know it

1.

Betrayal
At the rue morgue
Reality hits you like a sledgehammer
A rusty knife in the back
Welcome to the new world's reality
Get it your way, or no way at all
Fuck me

2.

Gave it all
Disabled ways
Now my heart lay broken beneath the wall
And it won't be long until the rest of me follows...
... Look out for the impact
3 floors down

Cleaning out the fridge

Bread, whole grain pasta, tomatoes, red bell pepper, mushrooms, garlic, chilies, virgin olive oil, garlic spread cheese (organic of course) and grana padano...

Today's Topic

Or yesterday's or the day before that... you choose your poison...

Mike Smith

An author I got to 'know' through Jason Jordan and as Mike's work as the editor of decomP, a great literary magazine that have published 2 of my poems! I didn't know much of Mike as an author, besides that he has written the novel Tell Christian I'm Sorry, and that he soon is ready with his second novel Tremendous Power Of Concentration, which he right now has published a part of, which you can read here, and believe me, it's a good read!!! It was after that read, my interest was sparked for Mike Smith the author!

Morten Andersen signs with Falcons

Yes, you heard right, NFL's most scoring player is back, the great Dane is ready for yet a season with the Atlanta Falcons. After their starting kicker Matt Prater had 2 terrible games (yesterday he missed 43 and 26 yards field goals, in a game they lost 7-13), the Falcons realized they needed reliability on the kicker position and who can deliver that better than Andersen. After a trial today, where he hit 13/13 kicks, from 50 yards and in, he convinced the training staff that old #5 would be a safe bet, so yet a year with a Dane in NFL, and this will be Andersen's 25th season in the NFL, go great Dane, best kicks!!!

Dire Straits

For the first time in I don't know how many years, I dug up one of my old old LPs, Dire Strait's self titled album, inspired by a book I'm reading right now, Ian Rankin's Resurrection Men, where a bunch of old vinyls are being played at a point. Though back to Dire Straits, damn how is this album smooth and delicious to listen to. Mark Knopfler's guitar is crisp and very enjoyable, well written music and even better played and his smooth and soothing vocals, amazing, this album is a small gem! I reckon this is going into heavy rotation here the next little while...

New Korn album

Just had a listen to the new Korn, apparently untitled, album, and hmmm.... wasn't that interesting, not that I am a fan of the band, and it is the first album of theirs I have listened to, the material I know from them are from the radio and TV. The album is mostly light industrial and alternative metal/rock, and the first impression went in one ear and out the other. Even though the music doesn't impress me much, the cover artwork is great!

F**k off nowadays topics

Draftday.dk

This post mostly goes for the readers able to read Danish, as today's topic is Draftday.dk, a great up to snuff site about football, from college to NFL, really good coverage and fast with news and so forth, a great resource for Danish football fans. Keep up the awesome work!

Iron Maiden in a Sony ad

Almighty Iron Maiden are having their superb track 'Can I Play With Madness' (The music video in a not too good quality and a rather good live version, that really is catching the atmosphere and interaction at an Iron Maiden concert!) from the album "Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son" used in an advertisement for Sony's new HD 1080 equipment, check the ad out on YouTube and listen to the killer music, this rocks!

Packers won their first game

Green Bay Packers beat Philadelphia Eagles 16-13 in their first game, a game where Eagles were favorites, though Packers and kicker Mason Crosby didn't care. Even though Green Bay didn't get any offensive touchdowns, they embraced the victory with a defensive touchdown and 3 field goals from Crosby (53, 37, 42). Brett Favre didn't have his best day, he completed 23/42 for 206 yards and had one interception and 4 sacks.

Other scores of interest: Tennessee Titans beat Jacksonville Jaguars 13-10, go Vince Young. Pittsburgh Steelers beat Cleveland Browns 34-7, 'Big' Ben Rothlisberger threw 4 touchdowns, he seems to be back as we know him. Houston Texans beat Atlanta Falcons 20-3, seems like the Falcons really are suffering due to Vick's 'off the field interests'. Carolina Panthers beat Saint Louis Rams 27-13, this should be the season where Rams would be back as a Superbowl contender, though Jake Delhomme with 3 touchdown passes didn't seem impressed. New England Patriots seems stronger than ever, and has never had as many profiles on their team as now, scaring to see how they closed down New York Jets and won 38-14, without pushing the limits, they did it in a very calm manner, the Patriots is a serious Superbowl aspirant. And the most surprising result for me, so far this weekend, Denver Broncos were feeling the heat from Buffalo Bills and only won by one point, 15-14, I didn't see the match, though I expected the Broncos to be much stronger and a team that shouldn't get in trouble against Bills.

Right now I'm watching San Diego Charges vs. Chicago Bears, I'm cheering for Chargers, though the Bears defense is having a good grip on quarterback Philip Rivers and especially running back LaDainian Tomlinson, but I think LT will prevail, right now the Bears are ahead 3-0 with 7:27 to go of the 2nd quarter.
