If anyone’s wondering, this is more or less the cover of an album from Godspeed! You Black Emperor, with the spoken words at the beginning. Album is f#a#infinity or something like that.
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Dead Flag Blues from the album F# A# ∞
*
- “#” means a sharp note in music theory which means a higher pitch. So “F sharp A sharp infinity”.
GY!BE MENTIONED 🗣️🗣️
F# A# Infinity is such a good album.
The car’s on fire and there is no driver at the wheel
the radio’s on and the curtains drawn
Cool…?
It went like this;
The buildings toppled in on themselves.
Mothers clutching babies,
pick through the rubble
and pulled out their hair.
The skyline was beautiful on fire
all twisted metal stretching upwards.
Everything washed in a thin orange haze.
I said, “Kiss me, you’re beautiful, these are truly the last days.”
You grabbed my hand and we fell into it,
like a daydream or a fever.
We woke up one morning and fell a little further down
for sure it’s the valley of death.
I open up my wallet, and it’s full of blood.
[Train horn]
This is a beautiful work of art
I open up my wallet, and it’s full of blood.
This post made my heart jump. Every day for the past month or more, I’ve listened to this at least once.

The words in this image play in my head whenever silence falls. Never expected to see them come up in a place like this.
