everyone gives Jim Morrison grief, but his songs are the best songs about death written in the rock n roll of the 60's.
and his poetry is not all bad, just very allusive and romantic, like Baudelaire (sp?)
not my thing to read but singing the shit makes me feel amazing.
I'll tell you this...
No eternal reward will forgive us now For wasting the dawn.
Back in those days everything was simpler and more confused
One summer night, going to the pier I ran into two young girls
The blonde one was called Freedom The dark one, Enterprise
We talked and they told me this story
Now listen to this...
I'll tell you about Texas radio and the big beat
Soft driven, slow and mad
Like some new language
Reaching your head with the cold, sudden fury of a divine messenger
Let me tell you about heartache and the loss of god
Wandering, wandering in hopless night
Out here in the perimeter there are no stars
Out here we is stoned
Immaculate.
