Back From the Edge

Back from the Edge

by Bruce Dickinson

A silent river flowing black

strange attractions no turning back

present danger I recall

that pins my senses to the wall

Back from the edge where the darkness has fled

and I'm swimming in light 

and I'm falling... 

falling from the edge...

back from the edge

I fell from grace and that's a fact

still have urges I fight back

cold decisions wear me thin

kill yourself begin again

back from the fear

that you're not worth a damn

throw yourself

into light and the rush as you

spin from the edge...

back from the edge...

now and then I wonder where the faces from my childhood have gone

like father like son your bones it lives on glowing shadows

back from the edge

I have to confess that I first listened to this song last week. Ive been hearing Bruce Dickinson's solo career since a bit before the Maiden concert. and I have to say that I like it very much. I think it was a necessary change of style between the first albums and where Iron Maiden was going at the moment.

but going to what matters today, if I had known this song last year, it would have been even cooler... as someone who had a rebirth, I feel this song very close to me and I can really appreciate the lyrics. Falling from grace is never easy, but it is also necessary  for the process to be complete... 

I also want to ddedicate it to all of you who had fallen... enjoy how everything feels so mcuh better afterwards...

Keep on rockin'

Best Wishes

New Change...

Hell, I never thought I could feel like this again…

I mean, I’m usually very good with feelings... but this... this has overwhelmed me.. and I do not feel the same sadness of last time. Today, I just want to experience it over and over again... I can’t wait to go to the next concert, and the nexdt one after that one... I can’t get enough of it. I dont want to be fed up with it.. and as I heard in the documentary, this is a feeling, and it’s a global feeling. It’s so much stronger that what I feel with britpop... this is so much better than that!... I definitely think that my life was marked and til the day I day, I’ll love britpop everyday... it was the first kind of music that I liked and obsessed about...

I’m definitely not quitting,... I couldn’t, even if I wanted... and I don’t want to.. it’s just that this thing I’m  feeling it’s so much stronger than everything I’ve felt before... I’d like to focus on this just a bit,.. of course, I’ve got the Oasis concert coming soon... which would be a very good reminder of my roots.

I still don’t know about my levels of obsession... I still believe it’s in a  “healthy” level... it’s so fun to feel like this! I don’t get to worry about stupid things, I’m happy everytday, just hoping, that someday I’ll be there again, or I’ll have a chance to meet them... 

So... having said all that, the new stage of this blog will be, as it was first intended, comment on songs that rock my life... the only difference will be that there will be metal songs and not Placebo...

Best Wishes
