wanderer.
wanderer.
I don't know if you can
I don't know if it's too late
To go back
To go back
I know it's been a hard year
And I
I know that you've aged
A Thousand years
A Thousand..
Over the Rough Terrain
You wipe your brow
You take another step
You take another step
When no other path remains
You carve one out
And we're all
We're all amazed
Wanderer.
Take me
Take me with you
& I'll be your
Your Student
I will hold you like a candle
To light the way
To light the way
Over the Rough Terrain
You wipe your brow
You take another step
You take another step
When no other path remains
You carve one out
And we're all
We're all amazed
Wanderer.
******oh my oh my, i wish you could hear it... i think it could be the best thing i've ever done!!*****
love.toph.

VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_
VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_ VOID_
Where there
once was a murder there's
fragments
of life.
Where there
once was a memory
deleted
There's a spark.
There's a spark.
Where there
used to be conflict there's
calmness
of thought.
Where there
used to live Demons
they Angels
bought.
Where there
used to be Battleships
and Missiles
deployed,
where there
used to be
a Champion Undefeated
there's a void.
There's a Void.

Leader.
Hello everyone, it's been a while since a new song has been here.. but I wanted to give you a lovely gift. It's just a demo, but it pretty much sums up everything I've been feeling since the tour in Austria... hopefully that is the end of it. I want to be more positive now, and draw the line under what has been a dull ache in my heart for the last 3 weeks.
love.
toph
p.s. i recorded this using the build-it mac microphone this morning... i'll record it properly later.
Leader.
I've got nothing
I've got nothing left to fight with
And all my Super-Strength and Power and Genius
Deserts me
I lay dormant
I lay dormant
Waiting for the end
I know I'm wanted
I know I'm wanted
But I
Don't care
'cause for once I FEEL
The pain of the game
The pain of the game
And the Cut of the Deal I received
Was too much for me
I don't want this
I don't want this at all
I'm not a leader
And I'll make mistakes
I gained Subjects
I gained Public
But I lost so much more
Collected objects collapsed to convex
And pressed upon my core
Well this is me now
I'm breathing somehow
Trying to muster strength
To push the weight off
To blast the gate off
To Find
My Spark.

trains, planes and automobiles
hello everyone!
well, the tour is over and Gali and I are now waiting for our flight back to London.... I'm sitting in a cafe in Salzburg airport typing this :-) What a nerd.
i would like to tell you all how happy you made me whilst on the tour.. so many great gigs in a week, so many lovely people in the audience!! i had so much fun, and many ups and downs, and a truly memorable few weeks. I hope you liked the band.. I understand that for some of you it's too big a change, but for me it really feels like a nescessary step to go further... I love my band. They are remarkable people, and we had so much fun together. Gute Zieten!
I would also like to thank the comedy and songwriting juggernaut that is Ken Stringfellow, and the absolutely delightful Asha Ali and her band... a week we'll never forget, I'm sure.
Aaaah, I am so sentimental!
OH! And, I'd like to add.... that last show in Innsbruck was one of the best ones I've EVER done!! Thank you all so much!!
well, thank you all again so much fo the support and love you have given me this week, and in the past. i hope you all also understand that it's getting much much harder, emotionally, to come out into the audience and talk to you all, so I'm very very sorry if i didn't get to meet you or draw for you... but I'm trying really hard!!
Love!
Toph
