Inspiration

Jag inspireras mycket av musik när jag skriver. De grupper som oftast inspirerar mig är mystiska, mörka och spännande stycken, Sisters of mercy, Type 0 negative och him har stått högt i kurs. Den sista veckan har jag hittat en ny inspirationskälla: Mind in a box. Helt underbar musik att låta sina sinnen fly iväg till. Deras tre första skivor berättar dessutom en historia som verkar mystisk indeed.

Textrader som dessa får i alla fall igång min fantasi:

"but I wouldn't want to live like this forever.
but change myself? never, never!
the very thought sends shivers down my spine.
I'm sure everything, everything will be fine."

"you lose yourself in this dead world.
you think you're living in your dream,
but there's nothing in it.
you're feeling nothing. nothing.
you seem complacent but there is nothing there."

"I can feel them always right behind,
casting a shadow on my mind.
but I know I have to hang on.

we know who it is we want.
we have a collective mind.
we don't miss a single step.
we're always right behind."

"I awakened in the city to utter darkness.
I was running for hours and hours
through deserted streets.
between all those towers,
there was only rain -- only the rain."

"I'm sad, so terribly sad.
I'm grieving about the things I had.
I'm sad, so terribly sad.
I simply can't see the road ahead.
I'm sad, so terribly sad.
but I can't say that I'm still afraid."

Kan kanske ge en bild av vad som lever i mitt huvud och vad som tränger sig ut på papper.
