Steve Kilbey Quotes

Just like you I am a wanderer
Wandering, wondering Outrunning all my previous lives
So cleave to me just like a tiny storm A raining and a thundering Coming out of clear blue skies - "All I Know"

Sometimes I wander under prehistoric skys
Here she comes with a penetrating stare
cold desert stars feel and sparkle like frost, they are so lost
his seed of adulation is your butter and your bread,
it's an exquisite corpse and its lips are red
If you're alone and you're feeling blue,
everyone in Persia probably feels like you do. ~ Lost

Inside the car sat a sulky blonde
And on her lap the road went on and on
As she dresses I look to the ground
Perhaps I know where the place can be found, and on ~ The Night is Very Soft

There were many guests at the table
Misfortune, jealousy, and sloth
Acting fine, drink the wine
Spill it on the tablecloth - "Feast"

I've got a nickname for you, I call you weakness
I get a little strength out too, or is it meekness ~ Paradox

The pines smell sweet in the frozen air,
and their silhoutte's just fading there,
the wolves crouch close, against the snow
but where we're running I don't know,
In villages and soft sad towns
the candles sway as night comes down,
cold bones creak and strange beasts cry,
watching shadows in the sky...
All I have, all I need, all I got.....is providence. ~ Providence

Loving, we've been loving, but sometimes hate is better
You can't keep out the killers with love, man
Hating, we've been hating, but only love can heal up the hate ~ Nightfriends

In the space between our houses
some bones have been discovered
but our procession lurches on
as if we have recovered... ~ Destination

Everything is going wrong
All my songs are coming true ~ Mistress

The universe is female
Eluding the science of men
You sway and you swagger with your neat little dagger
You're gonna blow it again ....
I'll prove her existence in everything
The soul of her rivers and stones
Her acquiescence in everything
Her essence, her presence, her bones. ~ Essence

It's never as good as I hoped or as bad as I feared ~ Into My Hands

Why are those buildings swaying like trees? ~ Hotel Womb

Follow her down to worship some god
Who never speaks to me, I wonder if that's odd
Then he says you're never listening. ~ Lost

The world keeps spinning, people keep sinning
all the rest is just bullshit. ~ Authority

You can't be a lover if you want to keep on using
What are you using that's stronger than the love
Sometimes I'm knocked out by the damage that you're doing
Knocked out, locked out, push comes to shove
Listen to the wind tearing at the windows
Watching how the white moon melts into the cloud
Important little tyrants, impotent little pharaohs
Men/man of sorrows lost into the crowd ~ Richochet
