Antony and The Johnsons - The Lake

भेसूर ओलसर

So lovely was the loneliness Of a wild lake, with black rock bound And the tall trees that towered around.

As Richard Corben pointed out in Haunt of Horror - and Poe would agree - this poem is about dumping corpses in isolated lakes, not mortality, solitude or any of that transcendental crap. Enjoy.

This song was a poem by Edgar Allen Poe and put to music by Antony Hegerty...I love it:I play it on guitar often.. In youth's spring, it was my lotTo haunt of the wide earth a spotTo which I could not love the lessSo lovely was the lonelinessOf a wild lake, with black rock boundAnd the tall trees that towered aroundBut when the night had thrown her pallUpon that spot as upon allAnd the wind would pass me byIn its stilling melodyMy infant spirit would awakeTo the terror of the lone lakeMy infant spirit would awakeTo the terror of the lakeYet that terror was not frightBut a tremulous delightAnd a feeling undefinedSpringing from a darkened mindDeath was in that poisoned waveAnd in its gulf a fitting graveFor him who thence could solace bringTo his dark imaginingWhose wilding thought could even makeAn Eden of that dim lakeBut when the night had thrown her pallUpon that spot as upon allAnd the wind would pass me byIn its stilling melodyMy infant spirit would awakeTo the terror of the lone lakeMy infant spirit would awakeTo the terror of the lone lakeMy infant spirit would awakeTo the terror of the lakeSpringing from a darkened mindSo lovely was the lonelinessIn youth's spring, it was my lotIn its stilling melodyAn Eden of that dim lakeAn Eden of that dim lakeLone, lone, lake

This song, and the poem it is based off of, is a beautiful take on mortality.

brilliant. i was diagnosed with cancer 4 years ago. during my treatment i was in a "hypersensitve" physical state. my nerve endings were on fire and i felt like . . . in addition to the fear of death . . . i would have a nervous breakdown at any minute. A&TJ was basically the only thing I could listen to. this work lives in the space that occupies the mind when it slows down and realizes the fragility of this live plane. the world is so much better with AH in it. peace to you.
