For Now by Thomas Feiner

Swedish composer / singer / producer, etc etc. Thomas Feiner definitely makes the list of most overlooked artists. Instead of discussing the Opiates album, this focus will be on one single track. A most dark and desperate piece with perfectly coupled lyrics and music.

You may have trouble picking this one up without shelling out a considerable sum. It's out of print and commands a premium price.



Watch the video. Listen to what's being said and wrap the music all around it. It's the whole picture. It paints the story perfectly.


Getting close by going far away
Going far by staying here
To the kind of place
Where loneliness 's travelling best
Leaving ill and well alone
If all fails
All fails
Let the clock strike upon this resting hour
For now
For now
Leaving point despair
Leaving point hope
Getting lost to find a way back home
Getting back by letting go
Make another thought fall
In the flow of things
And death is just a breath away
But so is life
Saying this, but knowing not
Which scares the most
For now
For now
Leaving point despair
Leaving point hope
Whatever worry
Running through the veins
When you go, we go
Whatever worry
Raise the flair
When you're there
You're there
Getting close
Abandoning point home
Leaving point despair
Looking up from the rush of things
In the point of life
That is now
A point of life
For now
