I DE∆DLINE


Greetings! After a few months break it is good to get back on the subject. As said in the first writing the musical part of the EP is ready but lyrics are still under work. Fortunately the phrases and words, rhymes and verses accumulate slowly by themselves and in the end somehow they seem to have some kind of thematical connection (or most likely the text makes sense only in the writers mind, we will see).

Eventhough not all of the lyrics are ready there has been some progress. Also the perspective has changed a few times, once very fundamentally because the file of the lyrics was deleted due to broken hard drive. Great! Recalling all of the lyrics hopefully saves all of the important parts and only the meaningless content was lost. Hmm...

In addition to the lyrics the graphical theme has perceived more clearly. Every song of the EP is going to have its own graphics with regard to the content of the song not to mention the thematical graphics of the whole EP. The graphics together will comprise a continuum with beginning and ending for the EP.

So, let`s say something about the first song of the EP. In a head freak enough, a word deadline may create different visions. The first one is probably deadline regarding working, how always have to have a deadline due something has to be finished. The word is also combination of words ”dead” and ”line” (oh, really?). However, these two visions together reflects the current work-orienteed attitude. There is only a thin line between living and dying and that line seems to be money. A job is all that we need, without it we can not get money for living, to pay our rent or mortgage, our car, our clothes etc. Sometime we may notice that most of our earnings are spend to cover the costs arising from something related to working, for example a car. Without that job far away we wouldn`t even need a car necessarily. Suddenly we have a huge debt to pay back just because we needed that car to go to work to earn the money to cover the costs of that same car. And we have a rat race. The same apply to a house and mortgage. We live in a house which is vacant most of the time due to working just to pay back the mortgage of that same house. Dozens of years. The stress is guaranteed. Depression and other deseases arising from working flourish. Nothing is humane or natural.

As we are trapped in the system, where is all this money going? That is an interesting question... Maybe we will find out. Maybe.
