Tori Amos: I Can't See New York
From here
no Lines are
drawn
From here
no lands
are owned
13,000 and Holding
swallowed
in the purring
of her Engines
tracking the Beakon
here
"is there a Signal
there
on the other side"
on the other side?
what do you mean side of
what things?
and you said
and you did
and you said
you could find me
here and you said you would
find me even in Death
and you said
and you said
You'd find me
But
I can't see New York
as I'm circling down
through white cloud
falling out
and
I know his lips
are warm
but I can't seem
to find my way out
my way out
I can't see New York
as I'm circling Down
through white cloud
falling out
and
I know his
lips are warm
but I can't
seem to find
my way out
my way out
of
this Hunting ground
From here
crystal meth
In
metres of millions
In
the end
all we have,
soul blueprint.
did we get
lost in it
do we
conduct a
search
for this
"from the other
side"
from the other
side?
what do they mean side of
what things...
and you said
and you did
and you said
you would find me
here and you said that you would
find me even in Death
and you said
and you said
You'd find me
But
I can't see New York
as I'm circling down
through white cloud
falling out
and
I know his lips
are warm
but I can't seem
To find my way out
my way out
I can't see New York
as I'm circling down
through white cloud
falling out
and
I know your lips
are warm
but I can't seem
to find my way
my way out
of your hunting ground
you again
It's you again
I can't see
I can't see
New York
from the other side
from the other side
I Hum
from the
other side
Music and Lyrics by Tori Amos, from the album Scarlet's Walk (2002)

Welcome!
In this blog I intend to do some historical justice to the many, many women who have contributed with their genius, creativity, adventurous spirit, nurturing - amongst other qualities - to the apparent linear and male dominated prescribed notion of History. This is just the beggining.
