The Point Of No Return

shackled by your own thoughts and your fears
you’re falling down at the bottom of those stairs
will you ever climb that high
will you ever learn to fly
will you ever get beyond the point of no return

swallowed by the depths of your desire
hallowed by the heat of your own fire
will you ever make the time
will you ever cross the line
will you ever get beyond the point of no return

a slice of the pie might be nice
a lucky break and no more mistakes
guess you never know what the garden of life might grow you
a bed of thorns
maybe a rose

the spider webs inside your mind
hidden in confusion you might find
a sense of your direction
a step into the spotlight
when you finally get beyond the point of no return

the point of no return…

NIN

Back in the day I remember going ape on “fuck you like an animal” in a club called the Twilight Zone/Utopia in Nelson

Being an Internet Marketer and a musician as well, has me watching Trent Reznor of NIN with interest. Here’s a guy who succeeded in the “old” music industry but also gets the “new” music industry.

This interesting Wired article has some food for thought..

Symbol

see a symbol bang a gong
cross the border going strong

and so it came about
with a primal shout

one match from the book
is all the flame it took

to burn that city down
and make a one horse town

Ben Van Wyk
