I SAY goodbye to Huaraz. I have been there for most of two weeks and have attracted much attention on the street for carrying a camera worth almost the average annual salary, zoned out listening to my Ipod shuffle.
For the first time in a long while I am fatigued with words and so for this post between the photos I will use lyrics from songs I have been listening to while out in Huaraz.
“Can I just fight for the winning side
And feel that I’m building a
Home and a life to behold
Till it’s robbed from my sight?”
-Sjamboksa, Gang of Youths
“Now well, when I was young, we connected
When we were little bit older, both sprung
I got issues and chips on both of my shoulders.”
-End Game, Taylor Swift ft Future and Ed Sheeran
“We need change, we need it fast
Before rock’s just part of the past
‘Cause lately it all sounds the same to me.”
-Do You Remember Rock & Roll Radio, The Ramones
“I’ll be animating every night
The grass’ll be greener on the other side
And the Vampires and Wolves won’t sink their teeth.”
-Tokyo, The Wombats
“Triple dj let the bass drum go like – Bam, Bam, Bam………Here’s Johnny!”
-Here’s Johnny, Hocus Pocus
“If you fade out without me
Will you know all about me?
If you fade out without me
Will you know all?”
–My Heartstrings Come Undone, Demon Hunter
“Here we go again, another drink I’m caving in
Stupid words keep falling from my mouth
You know that I mean well.”
-Can We Dance, The Vamps
“And I felt I was in a trance
And my spirit was lifted from me
And if only someone had the chance
To witness what happened to me.”
-Dance of Death, Iron Maiden
“Go forth and suffer for your art,
-If it’s all you look for, you will always find the dark.
-Suffer, The Smith Street Band
“Nothing’s gonna hurt me with my eyes shut
I can see through them
I can see through them
I am drawing pictures, I’m evading.”
Eyes Shut, Years & Years
“I’m trying to keep up with the latest trends
You pulled me up so quick that I got the bends.”
-We Spend Too Much Time Together, San Cisco
“I been running Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday…….
What have I done?”
-Police On My Back, The Clash
“What’s been happening in your world?
What have you been up to?”
-Snap Out Of It, Arctic Monkeys
“For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside,
That it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive
I wanna find one face that ain’t looking through me
I wanna find one place.”
-Badlands, Bruce Springsteen
“And here we go, life’s waiting to begin.
Life’s waiting to begin.”
-The Adventure, Angels & Airwaves
