I got no sense of danger,
When I met her at first,
Though with hindsight's cold certainty
I was always a target.
From the very start
She'd been training her sights on me.
I only later discovered
To her family and friends
She'd refer to me constantly
As if our casual acquaintance
Were a bigger thing.
But I'm not part of her history,
No I'm not part of the action,
I've no part in the plot.
In all honesty
She was never that close to me.
When I heard of the stories
She'd been spreading around,
The malevolent fantasies
I broke off any contact,
Thought that was civilised.
How could I have been so naive?
I've been dumb and defenceless
While she's been dogging my steps
Homicidally.
She got dangerously close you see,
She got dangerously close to me.
Peter Joseph Andrew Hammill (born August 19, 1948) is a British singer-songwriter, keyboardist, and multi-instrumentalist, best known for being the frontman of Van der Graaf Generator and his prolific solo career. Hammill began playing music at the age of seven, influenced by artists like Bob Dylan and The Beatles. In 1967 he formed Van der Graaf Generator, a progressive rock band that achieved great success in the 1970s with albums such as "Pawn Hearts" (1972) and "Godbluff" (1970). Hammill is known for his unique, powerful, and theatrical vocal style, often accompanied by complex and introspective lyrics. After the first dissolution of Van der Graaf Generator in 1978, Hammill continued to record music under his own name, releasing over 30 albums throughout his career. Some of his most representative tracks include "A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers" (1973), "Man-Erg" (1976) and "The Silent Corner and the Empty Stage" (1982). His music is characterized by a dark, melodic, and often experimental atmosphere, with influences ranging from progressive rock to jazz fusion. Hammill has collaborated with numerous artists, including David Sylvian and Robert Fripp.
