Breathe in, breathe out
Last breath in a vacuum, shout!
Death rattle in your chest
You missed your chance but you did your best
Epitaph, lie, confess
Awake at night there is no rest
Hold back, you must suppress
The hope that you now don’t possess
No end! Dead End! Repetition!
You pick a number, draw a card
But your will has been disbarred
Can’t break out, set sail too far
Let alone touch the stars
You were young, your dreams were large
Your colours lost in a headlong charge
Killed by a god as Semele
Shock from a lover and so you see!
No end to this, dead end, abyss
A void called your ambition
No end in sight, dead end too night
Murder your inhibition
No end to this, dead end you kiss
Goodbye to indecision
No end you fight, dead end take flight
Away from repetition!

Hear now! My heart it pounds
Four walls close all around
Hourglass our will it binds
Thick air stifles my mind
So give me change
Carry me on Spirit Horses
Eyes wild with the thrill of the chase
Under cruel skies I run
The wild hunt has now begun
So carry me away on spirit horses
Cymbals crash, beat the drums!
The firmament is undone!
So carry me away on spirit horses
We ride
Ride into the night, we ride
Wild, wild, wild eyed!
Thundering hooves and flailing limbs
Churned mud on a forest floor
If you’re here to herald doom
Then I’m here to head your call
Carry me on Spirit Horses
Eyes wild with the thrill of the chase
We ride
Rider on the open steppe
Yellow daggers split the air
Carry me on Spirit Horses
Eyes wild with the thrill of the chase
White light crash with savage forces
Tear apart this world I’m in
And carry me away on Spirit Horses
Far from all I know
Like fresh day break, from black winged night
A power to change born of untamed fire
Carry me away on Spirit Horses
Far from all I know
These figures roam in grey and white
Tear my heat our with dead eyes
Carry me away on Spirit Horses
Far from all I know
So four winds call and herald change
Spell the doom of those the same
And carry me away on Spirit Horses
We ride!

Reprise

Echo, call, distant thunder
The storm and horses roll on in
Wild eyes and murdered caution
Repetition weighs like sin
Chart the course for the going steady
With my colours, stars and time
Pick a number and draw a card
Or can't you see them
Eight points on seventeen stars
Will guide our hand
Nail your colours to the mast
Or hold them fast
These winds of change ain't going to last
So lose your anchor
They fan the fires that yield my ashes
I burn away in a crucible flame
Ride out on your savage forces
And stride apart from those the same
I stride apart from those the same

Living For Nothing
by Horror Vacui
supported by 40 fans who also own “Semele”
Living For Nothing finds Horror Vacui in their best form. Songwriting and production here is even better than the excellent New Wave of Fear album and the intricate guitar work makes this their darkest offering so far. Top notch Post-Punk/Deathrock! My blessings.
