En bild på min absoluta favoritbok. Jag har läst rätt så mycket litteratur på senaste tiden. Har läst Nabokovs Lolita och läser just nu Ray Bradburys Fahrenheit 451. Skitbra böcker, har även en lite mer uppkäftig period. Är besatt av Rise Againsts Drones. Den är astung, och inte bara det, den är fylld med aggressivitet och texten är hur bra som helst. Jag tycker att det är Rise Againsts bästa låt, även besatt av deras första skiva från 2001 (The Unraveling) den är lite underground och punkig. Man ser bara Rise Againsts typiska sound bildas. Det vore coolt för min del att lira Prayer Of The Refugee, och i skivan så mynnar slutet ut i Drones och idén är att man lirar båda i rad. Vore hur coolt som helst. Man får musikorgasm och världens gåshud av Drones.
Men Tim McIlrath är skitbra låtskrivare, och denna bok (1984) är också en av hans absoluta favoritböcker.
Just nu har man skrivit musik till sina låtar och det går bra. Bara att spela in demo kvar.
Nu får ni lyrics till Drones:
Deep inside these burning buildings
Voices die to be heard
Years we spent teaching a lesson
We ourselves had never learned
And if strength is born from heartbreak
Then mountains I could move
And if walls could speak I’d pray
That they would tell me what to do
If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by
Forget my name and I’ll forget it too
(Simple lives)
Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,
Are what keep me coming back to you.
No signs of life here, save the embers, the occasional flame
We know the way but can’t remember, conception to the grave
Shout confessions from the greatest heights, where no one can hear
All my fears, my insecurities are falling like tears
If you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by
Forget my name and I’ll forget it too
(Simple lives)
Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,
Are what keep me coming back to you.
The drones all slave away
They’re working overtime
They serve a faceless queen
They never question why
Disciples of a god
(I won’t come back!)
That neither lives nor breathes
(I won’t come back!)
But we have bills to pay,
Yeah we have mouths to feed!
(I won’t come back!)
I won’t change back!
And if you see me, please just walk on by, walk on by
Forget my name and I’ll forget it too
(Simple lives)
Failed attempts at living simple lives, simple lives,
Are what keep me coming back to you.
I'm coming back to you...

1984 är faktiskt en fantastisk bok, om jag kommer ihåg rätt
