Internal Landscapes Lyrics

"And I felt myself going. I was in a great deal of pain.
It was a very frightening experience.
I began to slip, to just sort of feel myself going,
and I remember trying to hold on. 'I'll be OK, I'll be OK,'
and it got to the point where I just couldn't.
And everything began to just become very quiet.
And I can remember with every ounce of strength I had,
I wanted to say goodbye to my wife. It was important to me.
And I did. I remember just turning my head and looking at her
and saying, 'I'm gonna die. Goodbye, Joan.' And I did.
It was then that I experienced...
experienced what we call a near death experience.
For me, there was nothing near about it; it was there.
It was a total immersion in light, brightness, warmth, peace, security.
I did not have an out of body experience.
I did not see my body or anyone about me.
I just immediately went into this beautiful bright light.
It's difficult to describe; matter of fact, it's impossible to describe.
Verbally, it cannot be expressed;
it's something which becomes you and you become it.
I could say that I was peace, I was love, I was the brightness; it was part of me."
(Joe Geraci, 1981)

Goodbye, my friend
Life will never end
And I feel like you,
and I breathe all truth

Love is the life breath of all I see
Love is true life inside of me

And I know you somehow
as I hold you in my heart, in my heart
(Senses following me
Senses following me)
There's a fire in the sky, and I know it's you
(Senses following me
Senses following me)
There's a light that's so bright,
and I know it's you, I know it's you
(Senses following me
Senses following me)
And I dream like you
(Senses following me
Senses following me)
'Cause I believe in truth
(Senses following me
Senses following me)
For I was always there
I will always be there

"And it's just so...just so beautiful.
It was eternity, it's like I was always there,
and I will always be there,
that my existence on earth was just a very brief instant.
I could say that I was peace, I was love,
I was the brightness; it was part of me."
(Joe Geraci, 1981)

I was always there, and I will always be there.

LOL. Behind a computer screen? You have GOT to be kidding. And why are you still home this evening, arkanesky :D Isn't the lil' one ready for her date with destiny yet. Oh, I forget, love in this town doesn't start up till at least 11:00 and it ends with a roll in the sack and another notch in the bedpost. Wow....such deep, inspirational activity. I guess that's what's meant by freedom. Or is it S.A.D.? Oh, well. The results are the same. Interesting song. Now take your computer screen and shove it up your backside.

Everything alright, freetobeme? Something you want to talk about?

Ending my interpretation of the whole album... this last song was the inspiration ... this is a resume of all the album... The main character is here... close to dead ... with his love one... and decide to let go... knowing that the world is beautiful, knowing that all will be OK. And that all that give meaning to the life is the love... think about the love as the one that you feel for you love ones, wife, brothers, sisters, parents... friends... the real love... the one that make you complete..

All the song has this melancholy there because you are dying.. so your thoughts are for the ones you really love and they are the fire in the sky, the light in the dark... and no matter what happen even if you die.. you will be there for those who you really love...

and at this point.. I shed a tear...

Anathema is the best band for make your feelings explode...

My Interpretation

Although I don't believe in the divine or supernatural, this sounds like a truly beautiful thing to experience. I'd rather not though, since there's a big chance of dying..
