Against the brain

Killing time or killing pain
for ten years you've been thinkin you were insane,
you could call it a victory but it was just a fight
against the brain
And I wont surender
to these cold and dead winters
until suns can come warmer
No I wont surrender
let the choices be unrivealed.
Behind the crossroads a promise be sealed.
Should you give it up or stand your ground again
You feel no pain!
Can you seize every seconds within your reach can you let the root
of the day spread wide in your inner eternal garden
Nothingness sitting right there,
doing nothing but doing it right,
behind the curtain the mask's falling,
behind the curtain vanity's collapsing,
behind the curtain the act is playing once again!

Season's Plagues

winter came just little too soon my friend
so keep your heart beeating until the youth of earth,
then your life has to take the turns that come your way,
let this new birth blow the older days away
changes we print on somebody's wax
the step we've all taken back before the leap,
we've been thinking that covering our souls with the
rusty leaves of fall would save us from decay.
Shall we come out and face the truth!
We've been afraid, we've all resisted,
we kept our eyes fooled by liquors cause we knew
we'd have to change and it would be for better days,
that every pain is a transient state.
winter came just a little too soon my friend
so keep your heart beating til the youth of earth
but then your life has to take the turns that come your way,
let this new birth blow the older days away.
There's a time for loving, a time for mourning,
a time for anger and maybe for the fight,
But we shall come out and overcome the seasons plague,
with self confidence and passion for this game!

Love

I drove beyond the storms chasing the past away
Letting in the blazing of a sun
which not a single cloud nor any soaked skies
could've made look less divine
a bright moon arose in dazzled shine
hiding shyly from the sun,
betraying the beauty of her nude body
to my unsatisfied goal.
It´s not something that I carry inside of me.
Rather something carrying me.
I was tracking deers to feed dreams only,
rileasing souls from the cages of my chest.
Hunting rainbows for the joy of failing
for the joy of letting things we love go
so I gave a last call so the blazing that then shone
into the darkness of my bones,
could finally settle straight and enlighten
and enlighten the poorest home.
It´s not something that I carry inside of me.
Rather something carrying me.
It's the perfect presence of the whole in each part
the glu that gathers, like blue cold weathers,
Rather something carrying me.

Keep the grace

All promises which I cant can't swear they'll be kept
The pretext i'll give will sound so honest and fair.
Reasons unsaid I still ignore myself,
there are people that care for me and I know I could forget them well
The feelings I've swept and closed all the gates,
gaps never get filled in, i'm outcasted and mean.
Pretending to grin, I'll conceal my sins,
there are people that care for me and I know I could forget them well
Just keep the grace, in all my days,
in all my ways, just keep the grace.
