So take a look inside
For there I left my smile
A note I had to write
That I've found my velvet mine
And I'm gonna sit here till I die
That my eyes are tryin' a-hide
Yet inside my ever-shifting cry
And I guess it's just tonight
And I'm gonna sit here till I die

Take one last look
Strengthen your word
For every mood
The soil's being ripped out off the root
And I'm gonna stand here for good
Blurring the truth underfoot
And the voice is soft and mute
Echoes in the misunderstood
*And I'm gonna stand here for good

The vast sea knows what it knows,
As the man with a shadow knows it too

And it's the same with the soul
That I found there
In the dark of the ineffable
Which is ahead of you -

Didn't write this one, but its spirit cannot be undone

*She reads poetry in her pajamas
And laughs when there is no joke
She runs away from the rain
And dances in cigarette smoke

Pictures never capture
The whisps of silver hair
Surrounding her face
And following her everywhere

She never dreams when she sleeps
Only when she's holding *****
She drives around in the prairie hills
With a childish smile
After all, what has she got to lose?

And then one day
You asked me what happened with
All the poems of mine
And I said they're all gone
With those so many reasons
For writing them

They're gone with myself

But I grabbed a sheet and
Wrote down the new ones
Instead of them poems
But something inside of them
Has been rapidly changed
With those so many reasons
For writing them

They've been changed.

We both knew what it can bring
We knew only sorrow and shame

You said it seemed lousy
But years it's been since you last came

We've had enough time to shout out loud
We've never once spoken at the same end

She's got her tiny world
inside yours for couple of times
and then Life happened -

"Can you feel
Occasionally
My beat in your temper?"

-Please let her
stay quiet
I could not stand
any answer-

"But why you seem
So sad every time
Something beautiful happens"

-He knows the reason
So well
And I know it too-

"For the dizzy height
We're becoming part of
I feel so bad"

-It should be that some things
Wouldn't ever be allowed
To be said aloud-

-And longest silence-

"Yesterday I heard
The most cozy song
That I'm sure you'd love"

-And I still
feel it-

"Sing it to me
How did it sound?"*

-I know every word's got
its true meaning
when spoken for a second time-

And this is why
These dialogues
Cannot be read twice
For they'd get too emotional.

Usedla jsem a chtěla jsem
Napsat něco silného a velkého
Ale jak jsem se zaposlouchala
Do bolestné hudby venku
To silné ve mně vyhaslo
A stalo se vším, co dokáže rozplakat -
Ztraceným úsměvem včera
Zábleskem vzpomínky dnes
A tak se vzdávám
A smutnější slova
Jsem jakživ nenapsala
Natož abych se je odhodlala vyslovit.

Nepřeju si nic než
Poslouchat tuhle hudbu
Přestože je hudbou bolesti
Nemůžu si pomoct,
Připomíná mi domov
A tak moc bych chtěla říci
Že to je naposled
Jenže to už jsem si mockrát slíbila
A tak se vzdávám
A smutnější slova
Jsem jakživ neřekla
Natož aby je někdo slyšel.

She sat beside me and turned to me
Said there should be one day
A place for thee
House full of secrets and lovely books
Wine spread all around
Might have an artsy looks
I listened quietly, hung on each her word
Sparks came to my eyes
"I wish I knew it would,"

I leaned on my back
And went on myself -
Where I would sing every night
To my beloved old man
To make him sigh
For how long and touching
Was our life
In the meantime split into both
But then once a lifetime
United though

Black dew into the black night
When falling,
Sadness to my dreams is crawlin'

After the last secret
falls out of me

I laugh at this night
coming out of what was she

And after we wake up the other day
the sun's gonna caress thee

Netoužil pozorovat okolní svět,
Chtěl projít a třeba jen konec
Se dovědět.

Kosti živých mrtvých překračuje s neláskou,
Dech se mu zrychluje
S rostoucí otázkou.

I play, I sing
Deep in the night
Sometimes I write
But out of your sight

I draw, I paint
Gloriously silent
Sometimes I listen
Well that's my only talent

"Death's for the Saint" - 's been said long ago
Time when his sins have all vanished
Been took back from a corner of the soul
Where Monk's life was held and punished

"Lead me, oh the Way, to where I long to be" -
As from the Golden Ones I am now banished
Wash away the country where I was once set free
Where Monk's life was reached and tarnished.

We live to cease
To cease existing
As the way from
The birth back
To the past

We die to crumble
To Crumble - to fall apart
So that we're not
That easily given
For the last time

We walk to scent
To scent the cold wind
Down in the pines
For we cannot maintain
Our urge to pass

I'd rather set you free
to see you in the street
one day happily
but these chains've been
kept just too long
close to the heart of thee
How guilty am I
not to set you free?

I should have let you know
this world's never again
going to be so quiet,
even though
standing on the mountain top
I'd do anything
just to deny it
and the fact that the rivers flow
How guilty am I
not to let you know?

One day I might feel you grow
you, but an innocent dream
led by a sinful soul
How guilty am I
not to grow cold?

Through all these times
There's a lot I've done and
A lot I've learned
But for sure I know
You did nothing wrong
If you let somebody be happy
Right where he's able to,
Right where he belongs.

Now through all these songs
In here, there's a lot I've loved
A lot I've owed
But for sure I know
You should have built a wall
The songs they are
Like a mirror themselves
*Like a mirror of their own.

If you’re lucky enough,
You'll get older
Through life
You'll scent
What people
Are in need of
And you'll be offering
Before being asked.

Despite the pain in your heart
Because of the girl you've never found
And the fact that after years of concentrated
Spiritual effort
You haven't managed to reach
The enlightenment,
There will the Pleasant Glimpse be raised
Along from your uncertain hopes and intentions.

Oh, and if I didn't mention it,
I'll leave you lonely

Invisible amount of lightning
Measured by things we need
*But I really owed them something
The same part as Life owes me

We lay there
I, the *******
Stranger towards immortality

Lying
In the confused depths
Of my fatal sensibility

One piece
Never understood
The other two
Crawl away for good

It all's been mentioned
Already in the written past
Of this world of mad kind

And we keep calling it
Different names,
Yet the same lines

Wasted words and
Buried sound

You saved me the day
You came around.

I fell in the river
Of your tears
As I wasn't looking
Just for a little while

I've never once felt loved
But I've been fortuned just enough
To belong among those few ones
Who've never once felt loved

I've never once captured a smile
But those many houses I've walked through
Thumbing mile after mile
They've never once captured anyone's smile

Před nedávnem byl nalezen kámen
na tom kameni vepsáno slavné slovo
nebylo to 'svědectví' ani 'kletba'
ale něco mezi tím
něco mezi tím mi vnutilo vzpomínku
na ten dávný čas kdy zrodil se kámen
a s kamenem slovo
a se slovem výpověď
a s výpovědí déšť
jenž by ** smyl
a výpověď tak nechal čistou.

Ne všechno se dá vepsat,
ne, zbytek obrazu je třeba dokreslit myslí ~

Last night
I saw a star fallin' down
But I ain't sure if I've seen it at all

Last night
I was walking down beneath the trees
But I ain't sure if I was walking at all

Last night
I saw the reflection of my most secret dream
But I ain't too sure if it was my dream at all

Last night
I sat in the park, people passin' by
But I ain't sure if they were people at all.

How much do we respect others for what they're like
For the glimpse in one's eyes when watching
Maybe the only object of his or her interest
For how mysteriously they tangle new thoughts in that very moment
And for how mysteriously they're being tangled by the thoughts at the time,*

For when I see you looking through the streetlamps
It's everything
And if I've ever wanted to become one with infinity,
It's because I know I might meet you there.

The shape itself
Captures this
poem well

Love is
Down
Below
The place
we all
once
fell

Ať už jsem, kdo jsem, co já vím,

Víš, že nikomu na světě
                 nepřála bych být tak sám
Přesto všichni jsme sami
                 a jsme tady spolu

A housle hrají nám
                 do rytmu kroků
A doprovázeny
                 vlastním bitím srdce

Zanikají tóny ve vlastní hloubce.
