Consequences
René May 2018
A journey alone through the night
Rain drops cooling the ash and im nowhere to find
Theres none i can hold
Theres my feet constantly pressing shoe marks in the mud
Don‘t like to be alone but they hate who am and destroyed what i love Now the birds stopped singing
And its getting colder
Raindrops turning to snow, Teardrops turning to ice
Gold on my hand and my neck
Would give all that if it could bring
Humanity back, but it can't
And our journey goes on and on
For many decades we’ve been on the run

You and them
René Nov 2017
Yeah you make me dream of freedom and peace between the leaders, until finally, kingdoms fall on their knees
No tragedies and no wars between the nations, no god who’s gonna blame us, no lord who‘s come to chain us. to all human beings, make this world a better place
And let the future light the past which is shattered and grey

Loss
René Nov 2017
Grandpa, I can still remember the fun we had
Grandpa, won't forget the way you're smiling to my face
I keep you in my heart, no matter were you are going now
I hear your voice I hear you laugh, when I'm looking in the clouds
I know your pain was such a burden
All the hope, all the turnings
Turned to be the end, my old friend and my world is burning
Life turns to ash, know it's always been that way
I walk it gently to the grave and my family does the same
Mama's on her knees with tear drops on her cheeks
Grandma's screaming 'Oh Lord' I pull her take her in my arms
You were more than just my grandpa
You were my motivator to not care what people say
'Just live your life, fill it with peace and harmony'
Your words stuck on my head, hold a flower to my chest
I lay it down, force a smile and hope that you will find some rest

— The End —
