Enuma Elis

Enuma Elis is an album of ZiuSudra, an album about controversy. It is the Yin and Yang, the perpetual question of right and wrong.

The album starts with Blood in the sink a song about beautiful dreams and dark awakenings. The pain when you realize that your dreams are shattered and you are faced with a dark reality. What can you do? Where can you go?

The next song is Migrant, a heartbreaking song about the terrible journey a migrant has to face. All the losses he encounters while he follows his desperate road. Will he survive or die? What will be the cost of his journey and what will it bring him ?

Enuma Elis of course is an ancient creation myth written in stone tables many ages ago. But history kept this for us all to see and perhaps learn something from it.

Controversy, the next song on the album Enuma Elis is just what the title promises. It is a controversial song, what is right and what is wrong? Every story has at least two sides, and even with only two sides the matters are already complex enough.

Sorry Sir, the slightly melancholic song about addiction is the fourth song on this album. Even though the subject of the song is addiction there is also the question of how to ‘lose’ the addiction. How to be free from the old spell, and how to live without the spell.

The last song of the album Enuma Elis is VR. The song VR shows the world of changing realities. Anything can happen as long as the machine can predict what you need.
Technology as your new friend, who would have thought this even could be possible.

Only the future will know the consequences of the choices we are making today.

I am sorry sir

I am sorry sir is a common excuse, something we say weekly, or perhaps even daily.

You can say this when something happens at any moment the need for an excuse is obvious and there is nothing wrong with a sincere excuse.
Excuses can have many different forms but here we only talk about a polite ‘sorry sir’, an excuse for a small event, perhaps even nonexistent in hindsight.

Sorry Sir is also a song written and preformed by ZiuSudra

Here is the place I never wanted to be
But inside the cycle you can clearly see
Where I leave my pillows at the door
And daydreams in billows, all along the shore
My eyes die, but they don’t close
Where’s my escape? What do you propose?

My friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?
Come friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?

Sleepless martyrs like me send out tentacles
My veins are simply raw vessels for chemicals
Crashing of tidal moods, sends my soul away
I can’t bear the hateful sight of this rude beauty anyway
Face in mud and dirt, as I fall again
There’s traces of blood on my shirt, but I don’t feel any pain

My friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?
Come friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?

So caramalise your arteries and go back to working
Sell your bed, sell your soul, the Devil is lurking
And he says “just another round, oh, just one more measure”
While the clock ticks obscenely, gloating its treasure
Please fix the optic, to this gleaming leisure tower
Teasing my spastic, selfish pleasure power

My friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?
Come friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?

Discover my eyelids held open by pennies
Nodding with crows when I offer them pleasantries
I follow the sad, friendly streetlamps home
Ignoring the blanks that invaded my chromosome
I open my door, climb my stairway to bed
I grope on the floor and the voice in my head says
“Keep it up, Pilgrim, and you’ll soon be dead”
For the 8th day in a row

My friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?
Come friend, won’t you walk the wheel with us?
I’m so sick of saying ‘Sorry, Sir’!
