William Control - Une Annonce/Vorspiel

...beautiful music from a beautiful man...

Une Annonce

In what mindset does our character lie? If the stitches
that bind the fabric of our soul shrivel up and fall to
pieces. Can one say with absolute certainty, that he
who was once filled with noble virtues, might suddenly
be converted into a monster so beguiling that even his
own shadow cowers in fear?
I have become that creature.
A charming, vulgar, silhouette of my former self,
disguised among you as one of your peers, waiting
for that perfect moment to reach out and procure your
soul.
If you cannot view the intentions of a man by the look
in his eyes two single heart beats after you first
encounter, then you have no business calling yourself a
queen. I know that some of you may balk, yet some
may find the earnestess of your creation. The sky
will open up and you will indeed be able to observe
a brand new world right before your very eyes. I
Have already given you the permission to shag, and it's
my hope that you have used that permission to you
advantage.
Ladies and gentleman, what more can i say? i woke
up in a city unfamiliar, i did so out of fear, on the
ground lay my insides. I picked up the courage,
determination and forgiveness from that pitiful bloody
mess, to find myself and discover the truth...

Vorspiel

He woke up plastered and stumbling
A full night of gin, pale sweat and seduction
Are all but distant memories inside the heart of
this shattered beast
I have seen the end and it's not here in this city
amongst the beggars and the liars
where must i travel to go beyond borders
of the clinically insane
far past the concept of mastermind
stright into the heart of disbelief
light a match and burn the whole place to
ground
collect an ounce of the ash and bring it right
back home
to hang on the fucking mantel

And this is how we begin...

Incredible. Did William Control write Une Annonce or is it from some movie or book? I know Prologue and Epilogue are from the movie The Libertine.

@xmyusernamesucksx Well a while ago i read that there was a journal found in the back of a grey hound bus... i think Une Annonce and Vorspiel come from an adaptation of that page in the journal. I think, just a little bit of it, im not 100%. i think William wrote it himself but i don't know. The page is on William Control's myspace if you want to read it :)
