what does it feel like?


my favorite Björk's song
specially this version,
it's the best performance ever,

like the out of control
like the view
like the rhythm

wanna know "what my body would sound like"
but I'm not brave enough to jump off the cliff.

Well... who knows, maybe one day, I'll give a try.

Hyperballad (1995)
we live on a mountain
right at the top
there's a beautiful view
from the top of the mountain
every morning i walk towards the edge
and throw little things off
like:
car-parts, bottles and cutlery
or whatever i find lying around

it's become a habit
a way
to start the day

i go through this
before you wake up
so i can feel happier
to be safe up here with you

it's real early morning
no-one is awake
i'm back at my cliff
still throwing things off
i listen to the sounds they make
on their way down
i follow with my eyes 'til they crash
imagine what my body would sound like
slamming against those rocks

and when it lands
will my eyes
be closed or open?

i'll go through all this
before you wake up
so i can feel happier
to be safe up here with you
