Falling Apart Again

Completed a film about The Anatomy of Emotions, and a new, unplanned, video for one if its tunes called 'Meeting Eno'. The Anatomy film reminded me what a breakthrough album of sorts it was for me, in terms of playing the piano and adding words to my music.

In the afternoon, in a somewhat melancholic mood, I played the piano for the first time in while and wrote a few words to go with the tune. It has a bit of a Somewhere Over The Rainbow quality to it. My main musical inspiration was 'The Blanket Roll Blues' from Scott Walker's Climate of Hunter album, his words are by Tennessee Williams. I'll probably include the song on the Pyjama album project.

Falling Apart Again

I'm falling apart, again
I'm falling apart, again
I can't hit the high notes
like before
won't somebody help me
up off the floor

Is somebody out there
going my way
my dreams of tomorrow
died yesterday

Everything is very very dark
again
very dark
again
I can't feel the sun
like before
won't somebody help me
up off the floor
