Late Night Expressions 1

Description

It's 1am, and I'm thinking about this unpleasent topic a lot lately, especially at work.
This piece is not really my usual style, I dont know that I'm particularly happy with it in terms of asthetics, but it does express what I want to express. There's a deal of symbolism in the lines and shapes, if you care to hazzard a guess to what I'm getting at here.

Inspired by: Peter Murphy, Cuts You Up

Lyrics to Cuts You Up :
I find you in the morning... after dreams of distant signs
You pour yourself over me like the sun through the blinds
You lift me up and get me out
Keep me walking but never shout
"Hold the secret close", I hear you say

You know the way it throws about.
It takes you in and spits you out
It spits you out when you desire
to conquer it, to feel you're higher
To follow it you must be clean,
with mistakes that you do mean
Move the heart, switch the pace
Look for what seems out of place

Yeah on and on it goes, calling like a distant wind
Through the zero hour we'll walk... cut the thick and break the thin
No sound to break, no moment clear
when all the doubts are crystal clear
Crashing hard into the secret wind

You know the way it twists and turns
Changing colour, spinning yarns
You know the way it leaves you dry
It cuts you up, it takes you high
You know the way it's painted gold
Is it honey? Is it gold?
You know the way it throws about.
It takes you in and spits you out
Cuts you up!

You know the way it throws about.
It takes you in and spits you out
It spits you out when you desire
to conquer it, to feel you're higher
To follow it you must be clean,
with mistakes that you do mean
Move the heart, switch the pace
Look for what seems out of place
Cuts you up!

It's okay... it goes this way
The line is thin, it twists away
Cuts you up, It throws about
Keep me walking, but never shout.

all I can say is wow
I know this is not your norm but it's a really great piece
and where as I don't get 100% all the symbolism I get some (maybe most) of it
this piece over all I would say it's one of your best it's really awesome :D
