(The transcripts below comprise almost all of the lyrics featured in my seven-album cycle The Phoenix Diaries, birthed between autumn 2004 and summer 2006; those few I've omitted I deemed contaminant to the presiding themes of restoration, realization, and especially counter to the ruling architecture of a perspectival shift from an entrapment in damaging behavioural archetypes to a stance more fluid, positive, adaptable and presently alive. Fuck, what a sentence. The omitted lyrics were also, generally tiny, scrappy stanzas of little merit beyond their musical context.
I've posted them here chronologically, thus in order to gain an understanding of the development of the cycle, I'd recommend (time-permitting) reading from the oldest post through to the most recent, especially given certain phrases have thematic and formal precident.... but, whatever....)
I hope you'll glean some riches amongst the swathes of shingle and emotional jetsam I purged throughout this period. Producing the cycle certainly assisted my continued existence in immeasurable ways. If any readers would like to hear the lyrics in situe, please contact me on hudsonjnick@yahoo.co.uk and I'll happily mail you a disc featuring the whole cycle, and the subsequent trilogy of albums I recently completed.
