At first, they were bits
of songs, sometimes hateful and sometimes wise, I felt were worth writing down
but, with time, it became a piece in itself.
Pieces
Webster's New World Dictionary,
Piece : 1.
a part broken or separated from the whole
2.
a section of a whole regarded as complete in itself.
-
Save me, save me from myself.
-
Reach out your hand and I’ll be healed.
-
Bind and twirl the dance of souls trying endlessly to connect.
-
Not even what I feel.
-
The only thing that’s real is the pain I feel.
-
A moment, I see !
is this your reality ?
You never even tried to talk to me.
-
Solitude kills my soul,
bitterness eats me whole.
Nice little
android there’s something wrong.
I scream to be
real in a world I don’t believe in.
Yes and you end up believing, just as I do sometimes, that no one wants
your fucken love!
No, no one wants your fucken love, no one wants your fucken love.
Fuck me, Fuck you,
I did nothing too.
Fuck me, Fuck
you,
left her there on
the park bench.
Fuck me, Fuck you,
I could have offered her
more, I could have spoken.
Walked away, too
shy to offer her my friendship.
Cursing myself on the long way home, I’m just like the others: a
cowardly android drowning in our fucken apathy.
It’s a strange world,
and I feel fine.
It’s a strange
world, I think it’s mine.
I don’t need to
scream anymore.
It’s a strange
world,
and I feel so high,
I’m alive !
cause all alone I'm
growing old.
It
took me years to find the words,
the
written screams of pain and anger.
This
child was walking lonely.
~ Paralysis ~
Stuck here,
me and myself.
Stuck here,
holding myself.
I wish I would lose
my grip,
and fall down again
at your feet...
You can't hear me,
but I'm screaming.
J'ai la rage au coeur
Ai-je le courage de lever la
tête
pour laisser éclater mes
couleurs
Je rève d'un monde au mille et
une couleurs
Nous sommes tous des créateurs.
It
just feels like futility,
this
anger inside of me.
Is
there anything I can create,
can
I fight the men of hate.
The
stupidity, the hate, ah !
The
cruelty of man;
the
injustice of this world !
I'm
trying hard to understand,
so
that one day I will take a stand.
The problem is not the
world outside,
it's the way it makes
me feel inside.
I see families, but I
can't relate.
I see love that I can
only imagine.
Normal people with
normal lives,
I feel so fucken weird.
Solitude, that I
understand.
Misery makes sense to
me.
I
hate my life,
not
enough to die, (slow sad)
but
enough to change it!
Fuck
your illusions,
superficial
playgrounds.
No
true relations,
a
handshake and a smile.
My
soul is screaming to change this bullshit.
If we can create so much hell,
then we can surely create some
heaven.
I will not fire the
bullet,
so I'll fire up a song.
I will not throw my
life away,
so I'll throw a song up
to the skies.
