ASP (short for Alexander Frank Spreng) could be summed up as a German horror/Goth nerd with a backing band. His music may be an acquired taste, but I do love this cover of “Possession” by Sarah McLachlan.
Possession by Sarah McLachlan
Listen as the wind blowsFrom across the great divideVoices trapped in yearningMemories trapped in timeThe night is my companionAnd solitude my guideWould I spend forever hereAnd not be satisfied
And I would be the oneTo hold you downKiss you so hardI’ll take your breath awayAnd after I’d, wipe away the tearsJust close your eyes dear
Through this world I’ve stumbledSo many times betrayedTrying to find an honest wordTo find the truth enslavedOh you speak to me in riddles andYou speak to me in rhymesMy body aches to breathe your breathYour words keep me alive
And I would be the oneTo hold you downKiss you so hardI’ll take your breath awayAnd after I’d, wipe away the tearsJust close your eyes, dear
Into this night I wanderIt’s morning that I dreadAnother day of knowing ofThe path I fear to treadOh, into the sea of waking dreamsI follow without prideNothing stands between us hereAnd I won’t be denied
And I would be the oneTo hold you downKiss you so hardI’ll take your breath awayAnd after I’d, wipe away the tearsJust close your eyes dear
I’ll hold you downKiss you so hardI’ll take your breath awayAnd after I’d wipe away the tearsJust close your eyes
