lyrics

Still. I have always been still.
My body is still and my mind is far from itself.
The overwhelming, cold, sharp wind has come.
My soul bleeds in my flesh, my mind crumbles in the wind.

Still, waiting for it to happen, for it to come, to overthrow me inside, raping and violating my truth.
Binding my eyes, I trampled over my body.
Opening my legs I tore out my heart, tainting my pure concession.

I called up all that was calm and in its proper place.
And now it will not stop, and everything will be conveyed into its unstoppable and unjustifiable vortex. Everything will be in a new and unsuitable place.
I will waste a lot of time looking for the right thing in the wrong place and I will have little time to find the wrong thing in the right place.
Order in disorder.
I am the centre.
With my legs drawn up I seek refuge.
With arms flung wide I try to take back what was always mine.
But what has always belonged to me, I have never had.
There is no cure for my wounds.
There is no absolution for my rape.
I trace my journey with my blood.
I die with what belongs to me.

(Kathya West)

about

Kathya West Milan, Italy

I was born in Milan from an Italian mother and american father.

I died on the same day.

Art was born with me, an impulse, a survival instinct, an expressive need like music.
I am mainly a musician.

I play the voice.

My main source of inspiration is everything that moves me and puts in disharmony my emotions, my impulses that express themselves and elevate in every artistic form.
