Shampain

“Lay back dead inside a lonely bed,
Trying to hide the hole inside my head,
Watching the stars slide down to reach the end,
The sleep is not my friend.

Drinking champagne to forget yesterday,
‘Cause I remember the way, the way, the way
It ended the day, the day, the day, the day
That I walked away, away, away, away.

Drinking champagne made by the angel
Who goes by the name of Glittering Gabriel.
Drinking champagne made of an angel’s
Tears and pain, but I feel celestial.

Elderly stars slide down the morning sky,
Slipping away to find a place to die.
I wonder when the night will reach its end
‘Cause sleep is not my friend.

Drinking champagne meant for a wedding.
Toast to the bride, a fairytale ending.
Drinking champagne, a bottle to myself,
Savour the taste of fabricated wealth.

Drinking champagne made by the angel
Who goes by the name of Glittering Gabriel.
Drinking champagne made of an angel’s
Tears and pain, but I feel celestial,
Celestial,
Celestial,
Celestial.”

Another collaboration between me and my mother. This time I left her fully in charge of what was going on behind the lens because I could not really manage both the camera and two handful of liquids on a shaky surface such as a bed.
Besides, while this song mostly apply to me for the “sleep is not my friend” part, my mother feels it her own too because of the “drinking champagne meant for a wadding” part, sadly. So, both of us felt connected to the concept.
Here is a backstage shot, just for the laughters.
