Take  my  hand,  take  my  pain 
let's  not  make  this  conversation 
behind  the  mountain  of  the  fame 

Digital  life,  a  settlement, 
a  heart  made  from  metal 
you  got to  choose  it  better 
Which account  do  you  want, 
how  many  followers  do you  have?

You  should  put  the  screen  down, 
give  a break  while  time  runs 
follow  the  life  that  you  are  yearning 
on  the  screen,  you  are  only  losing

This life was given to you, so what are you going to do about it?

See the ranting of the man,
They think he's angry with them.

He finds it's hard to see in the wind,
Overshadowed by the fearsome rind.

He never falls asleep
Villagers think he is blind
He never walks with a flock
Dragons knock; wolves mock.

He'd like to listen to one crake
All night; waits for it to be awake
When the crake starts singing its song
He realizes how to stop the chimaera.

It's his painkiller, painkiller
He doesn't need any filler
Now his heart has a thriller
He no longer wants to be a killer.

-----------------------------------------------------
Chimaera­ is a mythological creature that is
a combination of lion, goat, and snake.

You never brought me sunshine and gain
All you made me suffer again and again

Thought, I had lost me
when I hadn't got this goal.

Maybe a part of me had become
somebody that I had needed to
meet too.

It was sentimental although
they said: "you won't break through!"

There were sharp stones on the track,
thorns could bleed me really bad.

Some said walk away, some said
don't even hesitate in this room.

I got pretty occupied with the world,
more than I need, (more than we need).

There is no turn backwards now
because all we can have is now.

How precious is 'now' that you won't
have this moment in another 'now'.

Why are you wasting your tears while you
can evaluate these golden hours to shine?

Therefore you don't have to impress or prove
anything to them, Some will still be 'wow!'

The moment will end, will stay in the past,
another "now" will come till every "now" of you ends.

Now is remarkably precious, use it wisely;
before it gets late to complete all your amends.

Don't be afraid to die because 'death' isn't disappearing
it's changing your vehicle to get to another land.

Don't rush your life to become old or get what you want;
the process is where you can still decide.

Decide what you want to add to your vehicle
the lands you can live forever, heaven or hell.

If you use your days flawlessly in the best,
you may have better 'now's in heaven forever.

you  are  in  your  room  at  night, 
you  have  a  box  in  that  room 
it  is  not  enormous  but  big 
not  that  new  but  still  dusty 
not  much  fancy  but  still  pretty 

you  look  at  it,  but  it  is  not  clear 
you  don't  even  remember 
what  did  you  put  inside 
how  will  you  open  it 
because  it  is  locked 
you  don't  know  
how  to  lift  
cause  it  is 
 tough 

there  are  two  notes  on  the  box 

the first  one:
"Don't  stop  to  improve 
yourself  on  learning
something  new."

then  you  read  the  other: 
"Dreams  of   me  when  I  was  five."
