about

{1991 demo digitized from DAT, edited, mixed and mastered}

lyrics

Jilted and spurned
Slumming in the airport lounge
Please return, please come back
There's always time to paint the piano black

Anymore
Can I give you any more?
Could you take it
Anymore?

Jilted and spurned
Hanging out in the airport lounge
Please, please, please return
I live my life in half light
Don't want to see the details
I close my eyes the hard way
Don't want to fail

Anymore
It's just a reflex anymore
Just a one way waltz
I live my life in half light
Cannot bear the details
I close my eyes the hard way
Don't want to fail

Anymore
I want you more
Anymore I see my severed head
In every whiskey sour
I'm embarrassed in the airport lounge
Can't even pay the waitress
I make a break for the doorway
Can't afford to fail
I've fallen in the concourse
Forgot to hold the handrail
I took a wrong turn on the gangway
But I will not fail
Anymore
Anymore

about

Myself a Living Torch San Francisco, California

By turns surreal, beautiful, arch, and melancholic, MaLT’s sonic adventures explore the meaning of love and role of sex in a failing, depersonalized culture. Literate enough for lasting relevance, tuneful enough for disposable pop; dark, sometimes heavy, but always with sly humor and a dash of hope. Active in SF CA between 1991 and 1993 ... Credit Louis-Ferdinand Céline for the incendiary name. ... more
