Latest Movie :

Haunted by Poe

This song was given to me some time ago by a very dear friend, and I really like it. I only just bought the rest of the album last night, and I'm in the process of listening to it. So far it's quite good. This musician is the sister of the guy who wrote House of Leaves, if any of you have heard of that. It's kind of an insane book, with some pages only having one or two words and others where the type is in spirals or vertical instead of horizontal. Extremely creative, though.

Example from the book.
Anyway, here are the lyrics to Haunted by Poe:

Haunted

Ba da pa pa ba da pa pa...
Come here
Pretty please
Can you tell me where I am
You won't you say something
I need to get my bearings
I'm lost
And the shadows keep on changing

And I'm haunted
By the lives that I have loved
And actions I have hated
I'm haunted
By the lives that wove the web
Inside my haunted head

Ba da pa pa ba da pa pa...

Don't cry,
There's always a way
Here in November in this house of leaves
We'll pray
Please, I know it's hard to believe
To see a perfect forest
Through so many splintered trees
You and me
And these shadows keep on changing

And I'm haunted
By the lives that I have loved
And actions I have hated
I'm haunted
By the promises I've made
And others I have broken
I'm haunted
By the lives that wove the web
Inside my haunted head

Hallways... always

I'll always love you
I'll always need you
I'll always want you

And I will always miss you

Ba da pa pa ba da pa pa...

Come here
No I won't say please
One more look at the ghost
Before I'm gonna make it leave
Come here
I've got the pieces here
Time to gather up the splinters
Build a casket for my tears

I'm haunted
(By the lives that I have loved)
I'm haunted
(By the promises I've made)
I'm haunted
By the hallways in this tiny room
The echos there of me and you
The voices that are carrying this tune

Ba da pa pa...

Father :
What is it Annie?

Daughter :
You think I'll cry? I won't cry!
My heart will break before I cry!
I will go mad. 


I wish I could add music to my book of inspiration, but it would have to be digital to do that, and I prefer physical book form. Oh well. I can at least add the lyrics.  Here is the song, courtesy of someone who uploaded it to Youtube (not the official video, since there isn't one, just some visuals the uploader put together):
