mix theme: rain

keep art alive; art by iapia

this week's theme: rain

the trick is to make it your own; to take the theme and craft it into some kind of musical landscape that paints the picture for you.

if you would like to play along here are the guidelines (i do not like the word rules):

* mixes due on a friday*

feel free to post your finished results in your own space, in comments, contact me if you would like me to post it here, or just keep it for your own music drunk enjoyment.

every second, dripping off my fingertips

"in slow motion, the blast is beautiful;

doors slam shut.

a clock is ticking, but it's hidden far away;

safe and sound."

the rain is pouring, drops tapping along to the music on the window pane next to me. i sit here as the night slips away, and this song it just fits in perfectly.

somewhere a clock is ticking ~ snow patrol

only to rise and fall again

today i wish it would rain, so that i could walk underneath all of it, and let these tears that keep falling get lost in all the water. that it would all traverse down the streets, and tumble down into the gutters, to finally escape into the waves of the ocean. i wish that my head would stop picturing what we could be, and that i could sort out a way to let this all go. but, more than anything, i just wish you were here.

but just like the rain

i'll be always falling

if you were here ~ cary brothers
