Footage is from the beautiful 1988 film "Powaqqatsi: Life in Transformation." Lyrics: Indochina, Capa jumps Jeep, two feet creep up the road To photo, to record meat lumps and war, They advance as does his chance -- very yellow white flash. A violent wrench grips mass, rips light, tears limbs like rags, Burst so high finally Capa lands, Mine is a watery pit. Painless with immense distance From medic from colleague, friend, enemy, foe, him five yards from his leg, From you Taro. Do not spray into eyes -- I have sprayed you into my eyes. 3:10 pm, Capa pends death, quivers, last rattles, last chokes All colours and cares glaze to grey, shrivelled and stricken to dots, Left hand grasps what the body grasps not -- le photographe est mort. 3.1415, alive no longer my amour, faded for home May of '54 Doors open like arms my love, Painless with a great closeness To Capa, to Capa Capa dark after nothing, re-united with his leg and with you, Taro. Do not spray into eyes -- I have sprayed you into my eyes. Hey Taro! For more Alt-J: http://altjband.com/ http://soundcloud.com/alt-j https://www.facebook.com/altJ.band
