A Place for Everyone

Well, here we are, there's place for everyone
Rarely the place which one has wished to take
Some on a chair, some on a couch, some on the floor
Some under glass, like in a frozen lake
Well, here we sit, though absent in our presence
Some are plans for a new successful day
Some in a memory of yesterday's sweetness
Of words unsaid and unforgiven pain
The kitchen's warm, the cigarette is smoldering
Behind the wall, the neighbour's sound asleep
It starts to snow, the clock's hand is revolving
We play our roles but no one's read the script

Enjoy
Enjoy your life
When you wait for a train at the station
And think: "why not jump?"
Enjoy
Enjoy you're life
It is easy when you close your eyes
Not to see their faces
As they take their places around you
Like actors rehearsing a play
Everyday
Laugh at the joke of your life
Of what made you hurt, what you cry
There is no shelter and no rain
There is no death and no pain
Enjoy
Enjoy your luck
When absurdity hits in your face
on a busy street corner
and you lose your way
Familiar objects appear so strange
When you thought nothing can change
Anymore
There opens a door

A Mirror

I'm a couple of lovers bruised by the dawn
A companion who walks, always alone
A cruise ship lost in a vast open sea
An all-seeing eye no one can see
I'm a smartphone in idiotic hands
A cry of desire you'd not understand
I'm the thirst that cannot be quenched
I am a longing - hunting and strange
I'm bright neon lights of department store
Somebody's home destroyed in a war
Prison cell bars made of silver and gold
A dating app profile where fantasy's sold
I'm the line between convenient and just
Nerves of steel covered with rust
A pendulum which refuses to swing
I'm a guitar with blood on it's strings

Memorial Day

Those who will not return
Haven't died for nothing
The fallen ones
Forever will remain
In their fullest bloom and young forever
Mourned every year by the autumn rain
Those who are silent now
Won't lie in silence
There'll always be those
Who will speak for them
Cover them with flags
To the sounds of anthems
For what they'd have to say
No one gives a damn
Why should a memory be a poison that runs in our veins?
Leaving fresh blood stains on our hands
If they could speak now, they'd say that they perished in vain
If the war never ends
Those who have died for us
Will keep on dying
A thousand deaths
With no end in sight
Robbed of their own voice
They are still trying
To tell us that what we do
Cannot be right
Shamelessly, cynically using their names and their stories
The politicians are building careers on their bones
But if they could speak now, they'd say that the death brings no glory
If the war rages on

As Above So Below

I saw the skin we've shed
And all the drinks we had
And all the dreams we hide
In the basements of our minds
And I want to run
My time is done
You said I am a fucking tourist
Would not commit, I'm only curious
Would not stay long, just passing by
To your charms I am impervious
Using each other like pieces of canvas
A surface upon which to paint our madness
Like candles consumed by invisible flame
A little bit ugly, a little bit lame
It's a game, it's a game
And there is no winner
I see the thread getting thinner
You said I am a fucking tourist
I touched your heart and made you furious
Reminded what you had forgotten
It is the purest
In mercy, we've been given pain
Like bone dry land is given rain
And all the things we dared not say
Will hunt us every day
The ebb and flow
We come and go
We give and take, but it's not enough
As below
So is above
There is not much place for love

So near
A touch away
Consume, compare, display
Nobody wants to die alone
Let's catch the thrill before it's gone
It's such a strange game that we play
Reload
And reinvent
Obey the market rules
Attention's a commodity
Commitment is an oddity
And lovers are your shiny jewels
A digitalized loneliness
Imagined order in a mess
Of places
Was Vishnu lost just as we are
Among his many avatars
And faces
