about
Owed to the late, great Mark Linkous from the band Sparklehorse. I sent the lyrics from his song "Spirit Ditch" through Google Translate into Latin - Greek - Amharic - Hebrew - and then back into English. I was amazed at how different everything was translated. This song was derived from the translation.
lyrics
I want my records back
And the Motorcycle key and tank Sprayed with green eyes
The Owls talk to me
But I swear in secret To ascend from within
An underground holocaust
I live with you
Iron Hand
In the pit of the wind
The moon rises at the ankles
A laughing horse Pulls the piano into the sea
If you have a home
You want to know what you want to be
With a look at the passage
To ascend from within
An underground holocaust
I live with you
Iron Hand
In the pit of the wind
And the Motorcycle key and tank Sprayed with green eyes
The Owls talk to me
But I swear in secret To ascend from within
An underground holocaust
I live with you
Iron Hand
In the pit of the wind
The moon rises at the ankles
A laughing horse Pulls the piano into the sea
If you have a home
You want to know what you want to be
With a look at the passage
To ascend from within
An underground holocaust
I live with you
Iron Hand
In the pit of the wind
