Steve Kilbey Zitate

“The universe is female
Eluding the science of men
You sway and you swagger with your neat little dagger
You're gonna blow it again ….
I'll prove her existence in everything
The soul of her rivers and stones
Her acquiescence in everything
Her essence, her presence, her bones. ~ Essence”

“You can't be a lover if you want to keep on using
What are you using that's stronger than the love
Sometimes I'm knocked out by the damage that you're doing
Knocked out, locked out, push comes to shove
Listen to the wind tearing at the windows
Watching how the white moon melts into the cloud
Important little tyrants, impotent little pharaohs
Men/man of sorrows lost into the crowd ~ Richochet”

“Follow her down to worship some god
Who never speaks to me, I wonder if that's odd
Then he says you're never listening. ~ Lost”

“So now we're cruisin' down this shuddering highway with the dead sun shining on my back. ~ Myrrh”

“I've got a nickname for you, I call you weakness
I get a little strength out too, or is it meekness ~ Paradox”

“Ugliness you have to know, beauty you can't teach ~ Disappear”

“Everything is going wrong
All my songs are coming true ~ Mistress”

“Close to you, hear all you say
Even though you're continents away ~ It Doesn't Change”

“In the space between our houses
some bones have been discovered
but our procession lurches on
as if we have recovered… ~ Destination”

“Like a womb, the night was all around ~ Disappear”

“Our instruments have no way of measuring this feeling
Had ever got below the floor
Or penetrate the ceiling ~ Destination”

“On this very spot a great city once stood,
It oozed with evil but it felt so good… ~ City”

“I paid eighty dollars for this wedding ring, I couldn't take it off if I tried… ~ Hotel Womb”

“The world keeps spinning, people keep sinning
all the rest is just bullshit. ~ Authority”

“It's never as good as I hoped or as bad as I feared ~ Into My Hands”

“Loving, we've been loving, but sometimes hate is better
You can't keep out the killers with love, man
Hating, we've been hating, but only love can heal up the hate ~ Nightfriends”

“Inside the car sat a sulky blonde
And on her lap the road went on and on
As she dresses I look to the ground
Perhaps I know where the place can be found, and on ~ The Night is Very Soft”

“You stare down at some crowd from your trapeze
And when you fell they fell down on their knees
And when you broke they scrambled for a piece
And when you spoke I felt their anger freeze. ~ Metropolis”

“Sometimes I wander under prehistoric skys
Here she comes with a penetrating stare
cold desert stars feel and sparkle like frost, they are so lost
his seed of adulation is your butter and your bread,
it's an exquisite corpse and its lips are red
If you're alone and you're feeling blue,
everyone in Persia probably feels like you do. ~ Lost”

“Just like you I am a wanderer
Wandering, wondering Outrunning all my previous lives
So cleave to me just like a tiny storm
A raining and a thundering
Coming out of clear blue skies - "All I Know"”

“She put her foot down on the oscillation pedal, she was a transdimensional speeder… ~ Terra Nova Cain”

“Why are those buildings swaying like trees? ~ Hotel Womb”

“And she beckons to you with her fingers and lies
She says: can't you slice the price of your paradise. ~ A Month of Sundays”

“Great cities, or the endless beautiful plains stretched out before
his jaded gaze and disappeared into the nothingness of his feeling. ~ Fall in Love”

“Beyond that void is a place
Where figments from bad dreams are banished
Childhood nightmares all come seeking
And adult logic nearly vanished”

“The pines smell sweet in the frozen air,
and their silhoutte's just fading there,
the wolves crouch close, against the snow
but where we're running I don't know,
In villages and soft sad towns
the candles sway as night comes down,
cold bones creak and strange beasts cry,
watching shadows in the sky…
All I have, all I need, all I got….. is providence. ~ Providence”
