    Oh dear lord ❤ I love this human. I haven’t listened to this song in years, and I’m balling my eyes out. So deep and heart felt I can’t describe what it does to me. It’s like confronting the beauty of death and heartbreak and deep buried childhood emotions. Yet it makes me feel free. Love you Anthony ❤

    brilliant.
    i was diagnosed with cancer 4 years ago.
    during my treatment i was in a "hypersensitve" physical state. my nerve endings were on fire and i felt like . . . in addition to the fear of death . . . i would have a nervous breakdown at any minute.
    A&TJ was basically the only thing I could listen to. this work lives in the space that occupies the mind when it slows down and realizes the fragility of this live plane.
    the world is so much better with AH in it.
    peace to you.

    In youth's spring, it was my lot
    To haunt of the wide earth a spot
    To which I could not love the less
    So lovely was the loneliness
    Of a wild lake, with black rock bound
    And the tall trees that towered around
    But when the night had thrown her pall
    Upon that spot as upon all
    And the wind would pass me by
    In its stilly melody
    My infant spirit would awake
    To the terror of the lone lake
    My infant spirit would awake
    To the terror of the lone lake
    Yet that terror was not fright
    But a tremulous delight
    And a feeling undefined
    Springing from a darkened mind
    Death was in that poisoned wave
    And in its gulf a fitting grave
    For him who thence could solace bring
    To his dark imagining
    Whose wildering thought could even make
    An Eden of that dim lake
    But when the night had thrown her pall
    Upon that spot as upon all
    And the wind would pass me by
    In its stilly melody
    My infant spirit would awake
    To the terror of the lone lake
    My infant spirit would awake
    To the terror of the lone lake
    Springing from a darkened mind
    So lovely was the loneliness
    In youth's spring, it was my lot
    In its stilly melody
    An Eden of that dim lake
    An Eden of that dim lake
    Lone, lone, lonely...
