about

This is a reworked old ditty that was written after Crucifire had disintegrated and I was trying something different, something dark with a bluesy edge. I've now resurrected it under my 'The Twisted Psyche Of ARF' guise. I guess it sounds kind of Mazzy Star like in a way, but without Hope Sandoval's beautiful voice. You'll have to do with mine, sorry about that...

It didn't have lyrics for this song until about a year after I've recorded the first instrumental demo with the remnants of the Crucifire line up, P Verheyden on guitar and David Swinnen on drums. What may seem like an innocent little song about love, has a mean twist at the very end. It linked - and still does - the song to my then girlfriend, with whom I had a very passionate and hence short illicit relationship that I knew would come back to bite me, for longer, even, than that relationship lasted. Sadly, others who equally deserved better followed in my wake. In the end, we all pay...

lyrics

Dreamt about the Day that I would see more than your Shadow
A Dream without a Face
Black Eyes shine in Starlight, not to Know
But to Feel
Wrapping me in Nature's Sweet Perfume
Under a Summer Moon

Lovely Veil of Shadow
Devour me, so you and I'll be
One

I see, through your Skin
Real Beauty lies Within
Like the Pale China Doll's Mystery
Frail - Like a Summer Breeze
(Makes me... Release)

You're my Porcelain Angel
My Lover in the Midnight Hour
Aphrodite wrapped in Sky
I feel the time's not far away

When you will make me PAY

You leave
And I pay
Then he pays

In the End
We all pay...

about

The Twisted Psyche Of ARF Belgium

The Twisted Psyche Of ARF came about organically, as a side project for goth rock band Ahrayeph's mastermind Raf, in which he could live out his more schizophrenic and eclectic love for music, other than his main staple.

So whenever the mood strikes him, anything goes, from blues to alternative takes on electronic music and 60's pop, and it doesn't stop there. And it all lands here.

Enjoy!
