Firebird (1999)

One old song, from my time with SNOP.

The night is cold and dark
the falling rain chills
the stars show up a shark
his teeth are blades for kills

the picture is scratched by another
a burning bird from hell
maybe the sharks big brother
another room in life s shell

REF1:
My gods have burned to ashes
my faith has turned to dust
I seek the truth that smashes
firebirds tales of bloodlust (x4)

Ref2:
Firebird, firebird, just a flame in the sky
Firebird, firebird, kill the magic seven
Firebird, firebird, you burn so high
Firebird, firebird, first scar of heaven (heaveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen....)

~~~

I can't remember the other three verses correctly. The verses of Ref2 were interchanged later on in the song (e.g.:...magic seven/...in the sky/...so high/...of heaven).

Yeah I know, it's horrible:D Just a bit of nostalgia, hopefully I've developed a more elaborate style since then:D

PS: If any old bandmembers are reading this by chance, I'd be glad if you could tel me about the correct structure we had for the song, and especially the other 3 verses.

Mind the Gap....

Much clicking ahead...think of it as some kind of advent calendar:D

FR:
Air Berlin. Stanstead. Terravision. Victoria. Oyster Card. Tube... and MIND the Gap! Big Blue S.
On the Run? Pakistani weddings - Chiswick Park. X360:D.

SA:
Tate Gallery (Oh that rocked so much). Shibolleth. Spiders devouring St.Pauls (I hope it's St. Pauls and not Kings Cath...I dunno...). Skylines...why the hell do I have to have such a soft spot for Skylines at night? Superb Guide through the Tate's free exhibitions. Art quizzes (I suck;) ). Central London by foot. Everything looks red-sun bright when you've got the right person at your side to talk to.

It's not a church, it's a court of justice! Nice little house on the corner (I'm never going to find it o the web....). Londoners on the streets everywhere. Soho. (Stephan: I just found that there's a theory after which my speculation about the name may be right:D) Excellent extra-small vegetarian restaurant ;). "Just pick a pub, they're all the same". Cidres and an 'interesting' music-mix. Sadly but finally: Follow the bubbles to the Eros:D
1664 vs. Heineken (or something, can't remember).

SUN: Brick Lane. Cool Food Court. Strollin'. Sir Drakes Ship. London Dungeon. Lots of coffee (for me). Hot chestnuts:D . Trafalgar Square. National Gallery. Tower(s) of London. Tower Bridge vs. London Bridge. Reuters Open Air photo expo. Bus. Big Ben in the distance. Christmas Tree sponsored. China Town (sort of). Sad Goodbye in the Tube.

SUN Night: Back and forth by tube to Victoria. Bus to Stanstead - and ALL god sleeping places there are already taken!!! Oh well. NDS + FFIII. Coffee, lots of it and then some more (coffee).
Finally a whoppy flight back, and the weather here sucks.

Stephan + Steffi, I tip my hat to you! Thank You so much for that weekend, interupting your plans to show me everything in that short timespan, and showing me the

'London Magic'!

I sincerely hope to see you both again as soon as possible!
