The Spring Of Consciousness

You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain
You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain

(...)

You will find me waiting through spring and summer
You will find me waiting waiting for the fall
You will find me waiting for the apples to ripen
You will find me waiting for them to fall

You will find me by the banks of all four rivers
You will find me at the spring of conciousness
You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain

You will find me if you want me in the garden
unless it's pouring down with rain

We're like crystal


We break easy

We're like crystal, we break easy
I'm a poor man, if you leave me
I'm applauded, then forgotten
It was summer, now it's autumn

I don't know what to say, you don't care anyway
I'm a man in a rage (just tell me what I've got to do),
with a girl I betrayed
Here comes love, it's like honey
You can't buy it with money, you're not alone anymore,
(whenever you're here with me), You shock me to the core,
you shock me to the core

We're like crystal, it's not easy
With your love, you could feed me
Every man, and every woman
Needs someone,

So keep it coming Keep it coming,
keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming, keep it coming, keep it coming
Keep it coming

I don't know what to say, you don't care anyway

... to have and to hold


... a star in the sky

(...)

There is a star in the sky
Guiding my way with its light
And in the glow of the moon
Know my deliverance will come soon

(...)

Been waiting for the night to fall
Now everything is bearable
And here in the still
All that you hear
Is tranquillity


Waiting For The Night
"Violator", 1990
Martin L. Gore, Depeche Mode

ghost hardware


the damage is done

I need to be cleansed
It's time to make amends
For all of the fun
The damage is done
And I feel diseased
I'm down on my knees

(...)

Now I want release
From all this decay
Take it away
And somewhere
There's someone who cares
With a heart of gold
To have and to hold


To Have And To Hold
"Music For The Masses", 1987
Martin L. Gore, Depeche Mode

things are never what they seem


a fog of probabilities...

The unobserved state is a fog of probabilities, a window of and for error. The watcher observes, the fog collapses, an event resolves. A theory becomes a fact... What is the truth? Tell me, if you know. And I will not believe you. Things are never what they seem. Clean gloves hide dirty hands - and mine are dirtier than most... Without truth, there can be no justice. Justice will be done!

In, "Aeon Flux" (1995).

light, in the absence of eyes, ...


we can undo only what others have already forgotten

We are not what we remember of ourselves.
We can undo only what others have already forgotten.
Learn from your mistakes, so that one day you can repeat them precisely.


In, "Aeon Flux" (1995).
