"Every ending from here and on in every way saw the fear and the unknown try to repress the unrelenting change. All instincts within, answering with silence as nothing of comfort or reason could ever be said."

Steven Wilson & Porcupine Tree
I can distinctly remember the first time I ever heard porcupine tree’s music, in fact I don’t think a day has gone by since where it hasn’t crossed my mind in some way or another, and the same goes for my first live show as well. I recall that snowy Christmas of 2002, a waiting “in absentia” to show through its gift wrap; somehow I knew it would have a huge impact on my life. When “lips of ashes” echoed through my room for the first time, I Quickly discovered that a huge part of my existence had been missing up to that moment. Porcupine tree’s discography has gotten me through so many struggles, without that to fall back on, I honestly don’t know what I would have; it has become a designation. No matter what project Steven Wilson is creating in- His songwriting inspires me through my music, my art, and most of all, my writing. I can’t imagine where my life would be without his insight nor can I describe how deeply thankful I am for everything the man has done. I can't say enough about him, he’s truly a musical genius.
Mariusz Duda & Riverside
In my opinion Riverside is the best Progressive Rock band out there today, in the true sense. If not just the most artistic band I've ever heard. Every aspect of their music is inspiring to me, everything down to their album artwork and creative concepts. Mariusz Duda writes some of the most powerful lyrics. It’s almost eerie how much I can relate to his words, and have even written similar thoughts and emotions myself. I absolutely admire this band!

we are none of us...
Afterlife
I wish you could feel what I feel inside
The difference in my nature pouring out far and wide.
Halfway from middle aged
And halfway from who I truly am...
My whole world begins to surge around-
Buzzing high, flying- near empty streetlights
‘All quiet souls will live without a clue-
The wishing one is one who has all the fear alone.’
But I just wish you know, what it was like being me.
One day in life- one day to feel
It’s hard to believe.
We know so much, for little specks on the earth-
But aren’t at all frightened by the idea-
of life unfulfilled?
Overwhelmed by this identity that we’ve hidden-
I’ve shown very little in my day.
I answer to myself loudly as if I were angry
The words I cannot grasp but the words can be written
The artistic mind finds infinite ways of expressing..
What’s so close- And what’s so far from truth-
With all that’s beyond me
I have to seek out the ones I love.
Days before my eyes- flash in front of me.
Do you remember the little things-
The happiness of our passing?
A death could make you forget-
Could give you no reason to adjust your indifference.
In death do we ever conquer-
Our own divinity?
Last breath before our dependence spills
Out and fills our souls-
Will you remember then- the smaller things in life-
The happiness that was ours?
I wish you could feel what I feel inside
The difference in my nature pouring out far and wide.
Halfway from middle aged
And halfway from whom I truly am...
Who knows where I’ll be 20 years from now
If I’ll be alive- or in my second life.
'I regret all the things that I just can’t make undone
And I wish I could fix everything that went wrong'
But in all sincerity will you ever want them to know?
About me:
My name is Alec, I love music & art; I spend most of my time playing the drums, writing poetry, and taking pictures. My main focus right now is literature, I'm a self published poet and my photography sort of goes hand in hand with my poems. So far I've published 2 of my 11 books through lulu.com; these books include my photography as well as self-portraits; you can view some of my poetry here in the “blog” section. Music has always been my main inspiration, Porcupine Tree & Riverside and two of my favourite bands. Hope you enjoy what you'll find here, and if you want to see more of my work please follow the link below to my deviant art site!
“Together with me, and insomnia”
How are you today?
They would say,
Starring back at me through my eyes
As I was fading away,
I could never quite make up my mind
Whether to speak or whether to hide,
I was always there but with my head in the clouds
Lost within those anxious thoughts-
Those dreadful hours alone in the dark...
Keep it all- this time,
Your heart beat as it slows,
It’s winding down you know,
All your tragic fears
You couldn’t overcome
There winding down as well!
And part of you still…
Wants the whole night to yourself.
“I am well today”
I said to them
All me shinning inside, like I didn’t have a care in the world.
“I'm just a little tired,
As nothing seemed to give last night…
The CD’s they played,
The only Way
To stay sane inside.”
Deviant?
“I regret all those things that I had left undone
And I wish I could fix everything that was wrong
I wish I could tell you how sorry I am
This is not the end
It’s the start of something that I'm really scared of
That I’m scared to life... I’m scared to life"
-Mariusz Duda "Lunatic Soul"
"Ever had the feeling you've been here before?
Drinking down the poison the way you were taught
Every thought from here on in your life begins and all you knew was wrong?
SW – Porcupine Tree “Arriving Somewhere but not here”
"The dream went away
And you came with your dark hair loose,
Ruthless cold reality, oh how I hate your truth,
Don’t turn your back this time just look at my eyes,
I won’t break down... I’m going to fight"
MD – Riverside “Left Out”
“This is the moment I was waiting for
I was burning to welcome you into my world
So tired of crossing your path once more
I thought we’d walk the same way after all
The words are yet to come,
And still I feel like silence is meaning so much more
To tell you what’s unspoken but remains inside
I feel so quiet… I will rise” - Nicolas Chapel / Demains
Who I'd like to meet: Mariusz Duda & Riverside, Giancarlo Erra, Tim Bowness, I would love to get another chance to talk with Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree again, basically anyone who inspires me really, the band Tool, King's X, Teemu Selanne, Woody Allen, Steve Vai, Bjork, Olivia Munn, Hugh Laurie, Paul Rudd, Will Farrell, the Spirit of Frank Zappa...
"Not only the nail
Could drive its way through the pain,
I have a heart; nothing separating me from their remorse
Alec.... just cuz i cant text faster then i can type... i just wanna say im sorry for whatever i did.. not sure what i did wrong... but im pretty sure i can fix it if you give me that chance :[ is it because of what happened before ? :[ i really dont know what more to say other then im sorry... but i really dont want you to stop being my friend because of the past... but yeah... im sorry again.. and hopefully you will forgive me.. and start over...
if you do.. thanks :/ if not.... -----then.... idk
Hey, how are you dude? that's right a long time without any news... I don't logg in so often. Yes I got a facebook account, you can ask me as a friend so (I'm going to search you as well). What's up? What did happen that summer? Hope getting news from you soon! Bye sweet guy! xxx Mad.
well things are...quite... ahhh lucky you!! they still haven't planned any gig in greece..i wonder if they will..it seem they've forgotten us.. i'm maybe the most complaing fan... ah ah! anyway..i still hope they'll come.
i really wish you'd talk to me, even face to face would be better..
but this is killing me.. majorly.. ive never been this upset over loosing a friend before
The way you look at me now, makes me appreciate what I had, now I'm never happy, I'm always depressed or somewhat sad, our friendship was one of the best it was so different, it stood out before the rest, I sometimes wonder what went wrong, I thought we would be friends forever, but it didn't last quite long, you were the one I ran to, when I felt lower than dirt, you always were there for me and because of you I didn't hurt, you always told me it would be okay, I didn't want to believe it, but i realized it with each passing day, being in your presence brought a smile to my face, and now that you’re not here there’s an empty hole in my heart, that no one can replace....
I think you meant "kick ass" in the comment you left. LOL Yeah, it was an awesome show! I was standing right up front, directly in front of Steven Wilson's keyboard.
