Melkweg, Amsterdam. September 7th, 2006.

His new album 'the soft machine' is just out.

 

these days tell me to go it alone

the crippled walk on

the righteous were wrong

as far as I can see

it ain't what you told me

dark sand and cold sea

these days I'm to go it alone

I hope nothing's proving me wrong

you're so far, I'm so here

if I step forward would you dress me down

there ain't no magus

the best swimmers drown

as far as I can see

these days I'm to go it alone

I hope nothing's proving me wrong

you're so far, I'm so here

charge me a token fee for your truth

charge me a token fee for your truth

and I hope

and I hope for your truth

 

--Ozark Henry, 'These days'
