Earth Died Screaming
Requested by ovo_lexa
1. Halber Mensch - Einstürzende Neubauten
Of course, I must start with pretentious German industrial featuring faux choral vocals.
"Halber Mensch" translates as "Half Man", obviously appropriate for post-pilgrimage Jecht. See translated snippet below.
keep going in any direction
he who is in parts has nothing to impart
now as before
now as before
strain yourself
strain yourself
now as before
we take care of you
we take heed for you
we take care of you
we trigger your senses
we take care for you
that the second half will never meet you
half man
without further ado
the reaper’s standing there
keep going
collides
goes no further
you shapeless dough
from which life’s spirits
suck the last
remaining sparks
delirious they fly, piqued and drunk from here
dance futilely in the sun
don’t worry
they’ll finish you off
2. Raspberry Fields - Cannibal Ox
And now we get into the hiphop. Really, I guess all of the songs I picked are meant for a post-pilgrimage semi-Sin Jecht. Huh. Obviously, this isn't a Beatles cover.
If first you don't succeed try, try again
Step up to the mic and die again
This is the next lifetime and you wanna battle
Either you like reincarnation or the smell of carnations
The sample's the flesh and the beat's the skeleton
You got beef but there's worms in your Wellington
I'll put a hole in your skull and extract your gelatin
Mustard seed faith move mountains
3. A King At Night - Bonnie Prince Billy
there is grime on my face
there is crust in my eye
there is no one in this place
but no one said goodbye
this is how i start another day in my kingdom
there is hate in my heart
this is how my day starts
there is blood in my hands
from the murder of a man
this is how i start another day in my kingdom
this is how i start another day in my kingdom
4. Running Up That Hill - Kate Bush
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God
And I'd get him to swap our places
You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies
Unaware I'm tearing you asunder
Oh there is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love
Tell me we both matter don't we
I'm exploring the father-son relationship here, I think.
5. Earth Died Screaming - Tom Waits
There was thunder
There was lightning
Then the stars went out
And the moon fell from the sky
And the earth died screaming
While I lay dreaming of you
