Relatively speaking, different
things amaze me by their
origin.
I can not express
how life would be
with any less
of this obnoxious inconsistency.
I don't believe in the loss of freedom
believing will make it happen.

They pulled out his eyes, because he had seen
too much.

They blew out his brains, he must have
known too much.

Blind and braindead was their thought
now it was reality.

And they cut off his tongue
for he had said too much.
When you think, not know, you act as if
the difference fades, the first will go, let that sink.

We are all, in need of drama
searching for the most tense appearance
in a denser panorama.

I'm afraid of raising my own family
I have so much control
You can point your actions
to turn them in a better actor
for every single role.

We lack, he approves
we try to fill it up with empty moves
to make a better sound
to fake and turn around
the actions that we found.

We are conditioned like a hound
to work for a treat, deeds for conformation
and create an unreal feeling of elation.
Survival of the fittest influence leads
to hallucinating that this is right to do.

An illusion most complex,
so deeply structured, in a way
it wrecks and causes constant disarray.
People are shaped by society
I believe I don't know what to
believe
I'm going crazy.

On the first of every
januari
we will meet again
and again.

We discuss, walking
or cycling, whatever it is
that keeps us going.
Whatever it is that keeps us sane.

Acceptance is underrated,
to accept one another
truly
for this, so long I waited.
At last, an agreement.

How can I go slow when I
am sure that it is you.
How can society ask me to
keep it casual when I'm
sure I want to get close.

I know you're right, I have to lower pace
love is not a race, love is not about being fast.
It's a marathon of perfection.
I get the feeling, attraction
never liked me back.

Sometimes we need to be alone.
Drop the act and state the fact
that we don't know what our performance lacked.

Was it the impression that I gave
the one of disinterest
or the way I did behave?
Please answer because this is not a test.

I'll have to figure out without your help
but I'll get nowhere.

Know that I tried
before I leave your sight,
remember that one night
when we sat outside
and talked about your favorite concept.

On big days like these I think
extra hard and long about the meaning
of a song or the missing link,
the mystery that's leaning
in and whispering closely to your ear.
So very quiet but just loud enough for you to hear.
Do it, is what it says. And you get conscious,
you get a little curious. Furiously do you
want to know.

And when you find it
you deperately want to show, all and anyone
what it is, this marvelous revelation,
this heartstimulating, sensational relation.
The connection that you seem to see
it's personal and means more than anything to me.

All the unfitting things that take over apart
from this concept, kept ruining the troubly vision
that you have. Faith was losing to the misperception
of this world.

I miss you, lover, I miss you, family,
I miss you, friend and stranger, hovering
closer and closer to me. I'll miss you but you're free.

They don't understand, but why would they.
They live without the burden, the outcast feeling
that you have or do they hide it, I don't know.

I miss you, stranger, why'd you have to go?
