Skirmish: Hinterhand (@mashala)Liner Notes
German/English Skirmish
Lyrics
Wozu sollten wir noch einmal nachdenken
Kanst du sehen Where I’m layin What I’m sayin Right now?
Meine worte werden gesehen Of Phrases refreshin’ This life and a night of rebirth
Blutmond est voll Like a battered ball Loosed from the cast iron fire
Klingeln in den Ohren
Klingeln in den ohren Tally shells for scoring Tattered tales of hundreds On the ground To what end, this path we set To what end, to what end alle unsere Brüder getötet
Comments
Great nuggets in here. I like the rhythm of the first verse.
Rhyming "voll" and "ball" doesn't work for me, the "o" in "voll" is short, like in "loss". I do like the coupling of "Klingeln in den Ohren" and "scoring", though, even if it is not a pure rhyme.
I like the angles of nature and uncertainty. Nice effect with the mixed languages.
Ooh, I like the way you used both German and English. Why choose?
