Hammil Peter - The Tower

So: onto the familiar top steps! In cloud-scud moonlight glow The Tower reels. I, the blind man, Feeling for a path I know... Don't you know that I'm only feeling for how to feel? Rats run. Snakes coil. Fathers, Stare...

Hammil Peter - The Unconscious Life

I'm in command, I'm in control, I am the captain of my soul. Still, I'm uncertain in one major role... Oh, I drift through the unconscious life, Shift through the unconscious life, Lift up my unconscious eyes: Beyond...

Hammil Peter - The Wipe (Instrumental)

The wave hits the beach, writing words on the sand - To the academic man, this could be the answer.... In fact, it's no more than a hunch; still we try to eat it... I think we're all pretty out to lunch. The wave is...

Hammil Peter - This Book

Away from the past, this chance is the last, We are changing completely, We are moving the feast, we are motion. I've seen you become the bride of the sun, You surrender so sweetly, Sacrificing yourself to devotion...

Hammil Peter - This Side Of The Looking-Glass

The stars in the heavens still shine Up above me: how lovely they'd seem If you were with me But you're gone through the looking-glass And I am left to pass these nights alone. I'm lost, I'm dumb, I'm blind, I am drunk...

Hammil Peter - Thunder

Silence. Omens... For pain shall come and change shall run Down through my heart And shake my knees And NOW it is coming, All round is the humming Of the World. Too late! With my balance gone, Dead eyed doll, I'm...

Hammil Peter - Time For A Change (Chris Judge Smith)

Time for a change: I felt bad, things looked strange. Home, home on the range... Yes, it's time for a change. "Well, young man, when you grow up What do you want to be?" "Please, sir, if that's alright I'd really...

Hammil Peter - Time Heals

Thinking back, it seems that I Can lie beside you as I never truly did, In afterglow - No afterwords at all. Only writing love songs when it's gone and dead; Only paying words out: strings of half-forgotten...

Hammil Peter - Time To Burn

Time to burn, we could talk all the problems through... Are the promises still unbroken, Do the spoken words still ring true ? Oh, and where are you ? Time to burn, wakes and weddings, celestial choirs, And while one...

Hammil Peter - Too Many Of My Yesterdays

So many years ago I thought you were the one... Who knows when people change, surrender into strangeness, Adrift upon their lives, encompassed by the past; Who knows which one becomes the last goodbye? Don't try to tell...

Hammil Peter - Touch And Go

Between the light and the shadow, Out of the corner of my eye I saw your feathers all ruffled, Anticipating the sky.... You've got no reason to stay, Day by day your impatience has grown. I'm caught between the devil...

Hammil Peter - Traintime

Along the track the wires are humming In bursts of code like far-off drums.... Fathering the message: Further up the line Someone's shouting Down the passage of time. The corridor restrains the window, No view without...

Hammil Peter - Trappings

He could have been so great, he could have had it all, He had it on a plate, but he threw it at the wall. And he can't know why, but he still said 'yes' To the easy lie and the poisoned vest... The trappings of success...

Hammil Peter - Two Or Three Spectres

"Sod the music," said the man in the suit, "I understand profit and without that, it's no use, Why don't you go away and write commercial songs; Come back in three years, that shouldn't be too long..." He's a joker and...

Hammil Peter - Under Cover Names

No thanks for the memory, no thanks at all, No way we can wipe the state or contrive escape From the names we're called. No thanks for the memory, here it comes again, This life running on the spot, though we hide a lot...

Hammil Peter - Unrehearsed

Time for the unrehearsed entrance, Show a leg you can break, down the cocktail while it's laughing at you for heaven's sake.... I can't be your protector From these deliberate mistakes. Between the "can't" and the...

Hammil Peter - Urban

Sometimes living for the moment Sometimes going with the flow Sometimes professing to be an exponent Of the quiet life While night life Surrounds me I sit And go crazy alone Too many people and too little action Too...

Hammil Peter - Viking (Chris Judge Smith)

Looking out forward over the prow of our long ship, Pulling our oars and listening to the foam; Helmets and sheepskins salt-damp in the sea-mist: We're going home. Aslak of Langadale, Einar Thorgeirsson, Olaf the White...

Hammil Peter - Vote Brand X

Here's the modern political man, for sure he's nobody's fool, Believes in media coverage as a promotional tool ... Trust in him because he's got the right face, Just in case you harbour doubt Here is a slogan to tout...

Hammil Peter - Whatever Would Robert Have Said?

I am the suck of air you take That you've had many times before; I am the blow you try to fake, But which still throws you out the door; I am the air that fills your lungs, But leaves you emptier below; I am the void...
