BioI got this name from a lyric from Daniel Lanois' beautiful song "The Maker." It plays during the closing credits of the excellent movie Sling Blade. I am in my late 20s, very intelligent, talented, jaded, and also very lonely (a motif that has stayed with me for most of my life). But I'm ok. I have music (for listening and writing), films (for watching and directing), and art in general to keep me constantly inspired and working. I live in the Philadelphia suburbs. I have been on LJ since early 2001, but only now decided to remain completely anonymous for many reasons. If you'd like to add me, feel free. I have not written anything cool in this journal yet, but I will.
Oh deep water
Black, and cold like the night
I stand with arms wide open
I've run a twisted mile
I'm a stranger
In the eyes of the Maker
I could not see
For the fog in my eyes
I could not feel
For the fear in my life
From across the great divide
In the distance I saw a light
Jean-Baptiste
Walking to me with the Maker
And my body is bent and broken
By long and dangerous sleep
I can work, the fields of Abraham
And turn my head away
I'm not a stranger
In the hands of the Maker
Brother John
Have you seen the homeless daughters
Standing there
With broken wings
I have seen the flaming swords
There over east of eden
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Ohhh burning in the eyes of the Maker
Burning in the eyes of the Maker
Oh river rise from your sleep
-Daniel Lanois, "The Maker"
