Painting....officialy completed?

by alienbarbiebaby, 11.17.04 10:34 am

All through the sixties they liked to make pronouncements that painting (or the novel ) was dead. Usually, one felt that one was dealing with someone vaguely incompetent who basically couldn't do it and was ussing this argument as a vehicle to shift the focus to some other promotion; one saw it all as a bad sign when criticism seemed to take over in the academic world. They didn't even teach the works anymore, rather critism as the actually subject. Sort of official po-mo; on the other hand, Andy really only made "art" for about 3 years before declaring that he now made films. In the 80's it was "neo-expressionism" (and we have all these German promotions) which is obviously retro right there; some say, always a bad sign (many car watchers find retro cars a bad signe - the firm has simply run out of ideas, or shifted it's focus to a strang form of show car). The fact is, the contemporary art world has by any standards become convoluted, heavily associated with the "entertainment business" while the David Wojnarowicz
experience, a multi teared, group endeavor including launches, etc, a sign that the whole modern/(formal)so-ho thrust had finlay exploded. Dealers moving money (in many ways) still exist, but all the classics are locked up and a lot of people just sip coke along Santa Monica beach or work away on the computer as though elaborate puns and math problems have brought the Phillip K. Dick big screen another step forward. Visage the only hope, and academic art a world of its own (which it actually always was.)

Maybe it's really dead; a new painting an old suicide note? Painting in the air....and vertigo...

There’s no real life for an artist in America — only a living death.…If he is a painter, the surest way for him to survive is to make stupid portraits of even more stupid people, or sell his services to the advertising monarch, who, in my opinion, have done more to ruin art than any other simple factor I know of.

this is a painter's forum ? Artforum is dedicated to mediums of painting and scuplture? right.
your right du, i did my years of achedmic painting training and the major reason i stopped was i could not afford nor maintain a studio and supplies and live in nyc. Then you start to ask your self y not and how... that lead to a different from a questioning which in turn asked for different medium. now i am sure you will respond with that is because i was unable to "sell" enough to "live" off of it. which is also sightly true,.. I don't feel that and Artist at my age should b supporting them selves totally off there work if they wish to progress. No one ever said painting was completed doll face. Especally me as i will spend most of my time looking at painting and sculpure.
Now, show me don't tell me, how about throwing down some links to painters that are really affecting, you or culture right now... or ur fresh new promising golden children of market place commodities.

Still the easiest most permanent way to produce signification. Low tech, archival and more energy efficient than any other medium. Of course it might require a developed skill, which might mean some labor, none of which i realize u pedestrians can manage.

Sculpture is only 4 those failed painters.

No one looks at the bullshit video/documentary/perfomance tripe of the last 40 years. And the computer has only yielded the heavy handed collagey re-chew of Rosenquist in someone like jeff koons, not 2 mention giving off radiation enough to infect zip w/ testicular cancer.

Variation on a Theme by Rilke
by Denise Levertov

A certain day became a presence to me;
there it was, confronting me—a sky, air, light:
a being. And before it started to descend
from the height of noon, it leaned over
and struck my shoulder as if with
the flat of a sword, granting me
honor and a task. The day's blow
rang out, metallic—or it was I, a bell awakened,
and what I heard was my whole self
saying and singing what it knew: I can.

"At least i can prove i have the everday knowledge of craft and subject matter"
what have you ever said that proves this?
How about a link to ur own work? or maybe an essay u wrote, or even some one ur influanced by? anything?
who do you think doesn't have deadlines, business in there lives ? this has nothing to do with Art it has to do with reality for anyone I know... and "checking on honesty" wtf is dishonest about a "dealer" proffitering off of u ? Dude u set the original price. Are you talking about a "dealer" one more time "DEALER" or friend? get a job. "honesty"? the "Art world" HA you better come up with something better then that.

The boys and I have been burnin' it up,
Can't seem to slow it down.
I've got the pedal to the floor,
Our lives are runnin' faster,
Got our sights set straight ahead,
But ain't sure what we're after.

Flirtin' with disaster,
Ya'll know what I mean.
You know the way we run our lives,
It makes no sense to me.
I don't know about yourself or,
What you plan to be - Yea!!
When we gamble with our time,
We choose our destiny.

Feel like I'm dragging a heavy load.
Don't try to turn my head away,
I'm flirtin' with disaster every day.

Flirtin' with disaster, baby,
Ya'll know what I mean.

Dude u set the original price. Are you talking about a "dealer" one more time "DEALER" or friend? get a job. "honesty"? the "Art world" HA you better come up with something better then tha
++++++++++++++++

Wrong again screen boy. the artist sets the wholesale price and the retail. But as has been documented well elsewhere, this does not stop the dealer from paying the wholesale cost, but selling to a client at greater price. If u don't have a royalty clause, u r fucked. It means a lot when u do a print deal. One has 2 negotiate a client disclosure, buybacks and royalties. One must dig around 4 a dealer one can do business w/. W/ the gagosians, deitch's or paces u might as well b dealing w/ Tiffanies. Not so much the owners as much as the directors. they r like bush, talk in vague generalities and have others do the dirty work. As I've said b4 under a million different names, established painters pretty much get their own list and sell direct. Takes time, but word of mouth works. That leaves having a show a dubious entity.

I think my past comments on velatura's w/ stepson, brush drag and fat over lean, and the most important, who sets the lights and caters @ your opening suffice 2 license propositions regarding ptg. U can google them w/ zoogle. I figured u two were queer boys working together, if u even differ at all.

I've said 2 many things here that would greatly piss off some prominant people in the old art world. Mayb 1day when dementia sets in ...

And then finally, i know u all hate art history, but the ptg. vs. sculpture issue was argued and settled long ago by Leonardo and Michel Angelo. The former 1 of course.

Tafuri must here be taken to task because he comes extremely close to the truth about Piranesi and his large plan of the Campo Marzio, but he then falls fatally short of seeing the truth. Tafuri is absolutely wrong when he states, "Piranesi did not possess the means for translating the dynamic interrelationships of this contradiction into form." In truth, Piranesi worked very hard to "translate" the opposite yet necessarily linked notions of life and death (rational and irrational) within his great plan, and I have substantially documented Piranesi's (metabolic operations) in "Eros et Thanatos Ichnographiam Campi Martii" — a (so far) short series of pages within schizophrenia + architectures starting at www.quondam.com/1999/3/0203.htm . Stated briefly, Eros names the life instinct and Thanatos names the death instinct, and Piranesi carefully deliniates (between 1758-1762) both these "instincts" within the ancient city of Rome.

It is becoming more and more clear to me that any discussion of the rational and the irrational (in design and capitalism) tends to lead toward confusions unless they acceptingly incorporate the over riding creative-destructive nature of the metabolic (imagination).

ps. i didn't request a demonstrion of ur idea of "craft" which i am sure is a slam at what ever u figure i do...
however,
"How about a link to ur own work? or maybe an essay u wrote, or even some one ur influanced by? anything?"

not that u care, but this has been years of bs now.. (or do you as u seem to center ur posts at least in part with an attempt to bring me down) but i really don't think what u say matters at all. i am very open minded and enjoy a challange so hook it up, otherwise ur dead to me.

painting vs sculpture? there are the egyptians and then there is jessica stockholder to prove the pluralism of the art world at this moment- sculpture is re-defining the 3rd dimension of space and time and breaking ground in the 4th, 5th, 6th dimension with sound

be nice to painting otherwise it may just bite ya

by thingsthatgo (11.24.04 04:47 pm)

some get off on the idea that the third is a shadow for the fourth, and the fourth a shadow of the fifth and in a sense that is correct—you need to plot more points in sculpture than you would need to do in painting. so it could be said painting is but a shadow of sculpture. There is also a problem with this. This 4d shadow called the three can't ever make it thru to the fourth and can only be broken down in the 3rd thru virtual planer webs, cads for steve. To have some measure of success in the fourth you might need to plot a rather large number of points remembering no matter how many points are plotted in the third will not get you lift off, so you need to think about it another way—how can you plot more points without taking on more form?
That is where film comes in. But there is a problem there too. Film tends to copy points instead of redistributing them into position that would relieve an image of its burden. or maybe film is liked because it touches us with the burden and hints away from it. Anyway painting has along way to go—believe me.

Apology for showing up late - assured lateness not an attempt at being important....apology for seating arangement -not a status thing.

by Sickofthisshite (11.25.04 09:22 am)

It's such a stupid little argument which is better. Sculpture or painting.

Painting I believe lasts longer in the mind and is more restrictive.
Michelangelo thought sculpture was much more important than painting but then again most people talk about sistine chapel
and don't really think about David when they think of Michaelangelo.

Maybe the more educated sense
that sculpture could possibly be more important because of it's cultural value, but I really don't think it relates to the individual.

So now your dealing with capitolistic or socialistic principles. we should know which one sets more precidents.

The problem with being a starving artists and creating professional works is that everyone with money wants to steal it. Or do it themselves.
Then you have your own family bitching at the teeth about
your unliveability, and you'll be out on the street again.

So naturally, those who've been unable to do their great paintings because of these conditions look at the public area as the most prominent
and executive place to communicate.
Placing more emphasis on Sculpture than painting than it really has on people.

Sculpture is everywhere, but you have to go inside to see a painting.

What Fahey failed to realize, however, is that the real war is not far away, but in our heads as we battle for a place in reality that is increasingly being supplanted by a technological dream world. Turns out that the CBS show Survivor really is the territory when it comes to locating ourselves in an increasingly mediated world where surveillance and life on camera is more tangible then the media sanitized war in Iraq. Survivor challenges us to examine whether reality and media can coexist—or more frighteningly, whether we are on our way to a complete melding of the two.

i think inka essenhigh is saying something and demonstrates freshness and consistent talent and trueness to herself...richard serra has these same qualities...both attract success and are successful...deborah butterfield...i don't think that mainstream as applied to an art world artist is a bad word in that throwing an artist to the public is like throwing them to the lions getting treated shabbily can be detrimental to one's work and career...the visual arts is a privileged club but artists are quite vulnerable...let's face it we all want to dine at the banquet and really it's nice to be celebrated and treated with respect acclaim and honors...artists are an elite group of society...no you didn't have to earn a phd to get there but you probably worked your butt off climbing the ladder...why did you choose video or theater? did you exhaust the possibilites of other media or make choices that brought you to where you are? then there's judy chicago who has existed outside the cannon and has fought and won alot of terrain that has to do with the vallidity of her subject matter and process but the shows, reviews, critics, collectors all played a part of her success...she has a message the art world wants to hear that it didn't hear before or wasn't hearing before...she is recognized as a visual artist in that her message is a visual message and her work is art not craft and there may not even be language to process or describe what she is doing but in my opinion her message is more important than her work or rather her message is the work of art which i think is closer to what you are saying, right?

See, there you go...something about sculpture - fags love it but I'm sure they do it inside out. I really wish they'd see down and right it up; all of this stuff gets ussed as voo doo or some sort of money exchang/conceptual art. Seen ansculpture lately that you just liked? Something that made a progressive, positive statmemnt; not money scam or ha ha ha. Remember, the italiens gave up years ago - all roads lead to industrial designe. Things like Ferrari's and coffee makers are their art form (we won't even talk about all that concrete architectural work , especialy in the fifties, the last time I remember they're being free and easy with pics. ever seen a pic of the monza banking (circa 1924)from the back side?)

the barnes foundation was fabulust! totally fucking amazing awesome shit! my favorite was the old blue guy by picasso but loved the modigliani as well. also saw the bottle show at the aldrich and my first ever damien hirst- saint andrew? one of the apostle cabinets- the guard said his minions brought it and installed it the guards weren't allowed to touch it and he was no show but shazia sikhander had a really nice wall painting at the aldrich and one of her video pieces reminded me of walton ford

Aldrich at the Movies
September 19, 2004 – January 2, 2005

An exhibition of short video works by six artists were shown prior to feature films at the Bethel Cinema in Bethel, CT, and Garden Cinema in Norwalk, CT, while the Museum was closed for renovation and expansion. Now open, The Aldrich will feature these short video works in the gallery, by Robert Arnold, Marco Brambillo, Jeanne Dunning, Jenny Perlin, Shannon Plumb, and Shahzia Sikander.

one linkage i made looking at all the stuff in the barnes was between these spanish? saints painted on wood that barnes had collected over and over again and you could really see that predergast took off from these into his more mature work- i got way sick of the renoirs- but i like his really fat pink women although i thought he was really best at landscapes- glackens didn't really hold his own against some of the others in the collection but the goya was amazing aa was chaim soutine

they don't have titles, medium or dates on the pieces themselves you have to consult laminated menus that act as a road map to the wall- dechirico's red castle wasn't as good as his dalmation devil dog-
the drawings were boring no matter the artist but degas had a few nice ballerinas in pink blue and green pastel colors that popped and picasso's rose period seemed pale in comparison to the blue period and his later period hunky chunky women and men bathers- reminded me of what i saw in orangerie in paris- really the whole collection rivals what france has- also saw lots of henri rousseau- a nice one of woman and bear and hunter- her nipples were very sexy and one his signature tiger pieces
also in terms of display there were illuminated manuscripts hung with persian miniature paintings and picasso's cubist period paintings with african masks and sculptures- there are amazing egyptian paintings of horus (falcon)and anubis (dog) with marble sculptures of thoth (babboon) and relief carvings of isis with busts of chinese heads- really i am a quick museum goer and after two hours of walking through the galleries i had only seen everything once and briefly at that- really outshines the hyde collection in upstate ny and the isabella stewart gardner in boston but i can't speak to san simeon in california- bet that is also a national treasure

All through the sixties they liked to make pronouncements that painting (or the novel ) was dead. Usually, one felt that one was dealing with someone vaguely incompetent who basically couldn't do it and was ussing this argument as a vehicle to shift the focus to some other promotion; one saw it all as a bad sign when criticism seemed to take over in the academic world. They didn't even teach the works anymore, rather critism as the actually subject. Sort of official po-mo; on the other hand, Andy really only made "art" for about 3 years before declaring that he now made films. In the 80's it was "neo-expressionism" (and we have all these German promotions) which is obviously retro right there; some say, always a bad sign (many car watchers find retro cars a bad signe - the firm has simply run out of ideas, or shifted it's focus to a strang form of show car). The fact is, the contemporary art world has by any standards become convoluted, heavily associated with the "entertainment business" while the David Wojnarowicz
experience, a multi teared, group endeavor including launches, etc, a sign that the whole modern/(formal)so-ho thrust had finlay exploded. Dealers moving money (in many ways) still exist, but all the classics are locked up and a lot of people just sip coke along Santa Monica beach or work away on the computer as though elaborate puns and math problems have brought the Phillip K. Dick big screen another step forward. Visage the only hope, and academic art a world of its own (which it actually always was.)

The Mexican god Xipe Totec is manifested first in Teotihuacan culture, and continues in importance up to Aztec times. He represents a fertility cult requiring the sacrifice of human victims by removal of the heart and, specifically, by the flaying of the skin afterward. The cult priest donned the skin of the victim and wore and danced it for several days in spring festivals.

Re: Velasquez and Manet

by chicklet peddler, 11.30.04 09:15 am

Yes, the spanish influence is a point of departure; yet things don't really heat up with Manet until he assimilates the effects of Nadar's Studio lighting and the technology of daguerretypes. Moreover, his 'Spanish' influence is clearly a parody of Spanish tonal baroqueness, not to mention caricaturing social types. His famous guitar player is clearly a caricature, to say the least, the female matador's and spanish machismo, oh come on ...
I don't get what your saying; I'm just mouthing standard acceptance of the field on Manet; what's that got to do with DuChamp? Moreover, it was John's who did the light bulb; d. used the gas lamp, Etonnes Donnees. This has nothing to do with duchamp; moreover, I'm not a huge fan of d., he's so predictably upper middle class and male, but I do understand his work and it still is impressive today.
No, no, no. whatever the handle is, and in french du chance simply means "of luck". Duchamp is not all that much about parody as he saw his art experiments as abnormal science (3 stand. stopppppppages). I shouldn't have used the term parody, Manet would have been more comfortable with the idea of caricature; he caricatured the mongrel Spanish. Moreover, the conflation here of Velasquez with Zubaran and Goya is a problem as they are very different from each other, Zurbaran shares a soberness Val. would find pedestrian. Goya's caricaturing of the Divine right Hapsburgs on the Spanish throne might be closer to Manet's heart.
But Duchamp is not parody and certainly not related to my view of Manet at all. Sorry.
atp: yet the 'gaze' is still the priviledged male gaze (Bar a Folie-Begere); hence the need with him to make concessions to the surface.

Okay, we r in the Creative Workshop now and someone has submitted the above po-ahem. First person singular c's something bad and he/she assumes someone's kids will know, we r not told whose kid, or what age they r, ethnicity (but let's assume since the above write in the standard Nabisco format, they r white and of course male, that's the way zipjar would want it).

'more than a rumor' announces the deep feelings, that must b true, oh dear mon dieu. Finally, the funereal 'the kids move on too', kids being the sugary, generic Pop n'Fresh doughboys, with giggles gosh dern it, and 'move on' probably meaning a trip to the techno/sports entertainment complex where they somehow mature into sentient beings far more insightful than their corrective, overbearing alcoholic father. I c in this the author engaging 'move on' as a sign of his political failure regarding the dislodging of the father figure? The pejorative labeling the woman as Mommy Dearest broaches the usual middle class paranoia about strong women, a breach that is so much in tandem w/ Dominant Cultures or Masculinities, or should I say, Imperial Masculinities demonization of strong women.

So, really, what we have is in this narcissistic feint at dreamware, a weak male couched in defensive language that turns out to b the rope w/ which he hangs himself.

The founder of the Legalistic school was Hsün Tzu or Hsün-tzu. The most important principle in his thinking was that humans are inherently evil and inclined toward criminal and selfish behavior. Thus, if humans are allowed to engage in their natural proclivities, the result will be conflict and social disorder. As a solution to this problem, the ancient sage-kings invented morality. Since morality does not exist in nature, the only way of making humans behave morally is through habituation and harsh punishment (Lau 120). Hsün Tzu, much like the Italian political philosopher Machiavelli, draws a clear distinction between what pertains to heaven and what pertains to man.

LONDON - A porcelain urinal is the most influential work of modern art, according to a survey released Wednesday.
The poll of 500 arts figures ranked French surrealist Marcel Duchamp's 1917 piece "Fountain" — an ordinary white, porcelain urinal — more influential than Pablo Picasso's "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon," Andy Warhol's screen prints of Marilyn Monroe and "Guernica," Picasso's searing depiction of the devastation of war.

Duchamp pioneered the use of everyday objects as art, an aesthetic that questioned the nature of art itself.

Art expert Simon Wilson said the choice of Duchamp's urinal "comes as a bit of a shock."

"But it reflects the dynamic nature of art today and the idea that the creative process that goes into a work of art is the most important thing — the work itself can be made of anything and can take any form," he said.

i like the black paintings of goya. I am non plussed by velasquez - too cold - or too subtle. Goya just holds my interest more. Maybe its the link to existential despair like Rothko and all the other painters of darkness.

PRIVATE P(ARTS)

by Distant Mother (12.03.04 06:04 am)

Eating cheese will make a boy's semen smell and taste nicer. Did u ever wonder if males stranded in the desert could live on eating their own cum? Kinda manna from the private parts.

Giotto's radical abandonment of the decorative two dimensionality of the International Style shocked an public not accustomed to the huge expanses of lapis lazuli. We need more lapis lazuli in ptg today.

Stop googling zippiz

by Distant Mother (12.03.04 06:12 am)

Velasquez too cold? Obviously u have never seen a Vela. Coming off an intense conversion from the Titian's he came to know in King Phillip's collection, he was anything but cold. The impasto celebrating surfaces alone argue that, not to mention his focus on tactile representation and the color of Titian. Look at the Popes or his equestrians or his protraits of Phillip.

c'mon zip, take your partner gareth doe c doe, and visit some collections, Getty's, Mellon's, Fricks; get a docent tour. The computer screen can't help u here.

moreover, one of Goya's problems

by Distant Mother (12.03.04 06:20 am)

was his allegiance to the spanish tradition of velasquez. He wanted the surfaces of Divine Right priviledge; yet felt uneasy dressing his ptgs of the horrors and stupidity of Monarchic rule in the manner of preferred fetish. This probably explains his opting for aquatints and the later dark ptgs. There is nothing like seeing people talk about the beauty of the handling of paint in Goya's Third of May atrocity. Good reason 2b careful w/ politics in art.

Alessandro Ferretti was born in Milano, Italy, on January 27, 1968. After classical studies during High School, he received the ''laurea'' degree in electrical engineering from Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI) in 1993 and the ''master'' degree in Information Technology from CEFRIEL (Politecnico - private firms consortium) working on digital audio compression (Psychoacoustic applications to source coding algorithms). In May 1994 he joined the POLIMI SAR group working with Prof. Rocca and Prof. Prati on SAR interferometry and digital elevation model reconstruction. He visited the Department of Geomatic Engineering (formerly Photogrammetry and Surveying) at University College London during the Summer of 1996. In July 1997 received the PhD in electrical engineering from POLIMI. His PhD thesis topic addressed the use of multibaseline SAR interferograms for more reliable phase unwrapping algorithms. His research interests concern digital signal processing and remote sensing.

I went to jail, where there is no coffee of any kind. The LA County Correctional Facility is as bad as The Tombs. Just miles and miles of people in that underground world, almost all Hispanic or African Americans of course. The gangs are the shadow government there, and I had a rather formal interview by some coalition of Crips, Bloods, and, well, a number of large men with shaved heads and Aztec tattoos, let's say. Some of them assumed I was a cop, but mostly they were perplexed. I talked about dancing on the counter of the Starbucks, and Howard Schult is a billionaire and he gets his coffee on the cheap because he doesn't pay the families who bring it to market. They are out there with their children and grandparents desperately trying to increase their output, some of the kids are six and seven years old... All this was better known to these guys; they are educated on the impact of the globalized coffee economy in a way that most liberals aren't. Anyway, they called me "Starbuck" throughout my stay, and there was always one near me, walking me through the fluorescent tunnels. I felt safe.

Theatre of spirits:

by Jareth (12.06.04 12:12 am)

Hexagons of wood and glass,
scarcely bigger than a shoe box,
with room in them for night and all its lights.

Monuments to every moment,
refuse of every moment, used:
cages for infinity.

Marbles, buttons, thimbles, dice,
pins, stamps, and glass beads:
tales of the time.

Memory weaves, unweaves the echoes:
in the four corners of the box
shadowless ladies play at hide-and-seek.

Fire buried in the mirror,
water sleeping in the agate:
solos for Jenny Colonne and Jenny Lind.

"One has to commit a painting," said Degas,
"the way one commits a crime." But you constructed
boxes where things hurry away from their names.

Slot machines of visions,
condensation flask for conversations,
hotel of crickets and constellations.

Minimal, incoherent fragments:
the opposite of History, creator of ruins,
out of your ruins you have made creations.

Theatre of spirits:
objects putting the laws
of identity through hoops.

The "Grand Hotel de la Couronne": in a vial,
the three of clubs, and very surprised,
Thumbelina in gardens of reflection.

A comb is a harp strummed by the glance
of a little girl born dumb.

The reflector of the inner eye
scatters the spectacle:
God all alone above the extinct world.

The apparitions are manifest,
their bodies weigh less than light,
lasting as long as this phrase lasts.

I look all white but, my Dad was black.

The indians send signals
From the rocks above the pass
The cowboys take positions
In the bushes and the grass
The squaw is with the corporal
She is tied against the tree
She doesn’t mind the language
It’s the beating she don’t need

She lets loose all the horses
When the corporal is asleep
And he wakes to find the fire’s dead
And arrows in his hats
And davy crockett rides around
And says it’s cool for cats
The sweeney’s doing ninety
’cos they’ve got the word to go
They get a gang of villains
In a shed up at heathrow
They’re counting out the fivers
When the handcuffs lock again
In and out of wandsworth
With the numbers on their names
It’s funny how their missus’
Always look the bleeding same
And meanwhile at the station
There’s a couple of likely lads
Who swear like how’s your father
And they’re very cool for cats
They’re cool for cats

To change the mood a little
I’ve been posing down the pub
On seeing my reflection
I’m looking slightly rough
I fancy this, I fancy that
I wanna be so flash
I give a little muscle
And I spend a little cash
But all I get is bitter and a nasty little rash
And by the time I’m sober
I’ve forgotten what I’ve had
And ev’rybody tells me that it’s cool to be a cat
Cool for cats

Shake up at the disco
And I think I’ve got a pull
I ask her lots of questions
And she hangs on to the wall
I kiss her for the first time
And then I take her home
I’m invited in for coffee
And I give the dog a bone
She likes to go to discos
But she’s never on her own
I said I’ll see you later
And I give her some old chat
But it’s not like that on the tv
When it’s cool for cats
It’s cool for cats

Now angel, I’m on the rail
Eyes wide you’ll find me there
With a wild dogs invitation
I’m on the rail
Eyes wide the light switched on
And I’m found in a strange apartment
Outside the walls
Outside the Walls of Utopia
Utopia, Utopia, Utopia, Utopia

Come in the light and drag it down
A fire in the mind of the child that burned
its home.
