Résumé

 Exhaustion

 

1.A thousand strangers broke my heart

Since way back when,

A thousand times I stitched it back;

It bleeds again.

 

2.A thousand storms tore down my house,

Again it burnt,

Reached out for help and all looked down

And then I learned.

 

3.A thousand times I built a wall

And stayed inside,

But silly me, let someone in

And spoke my mind.

 

4.A thousand lives in thirty years,

Seen lots of stuff,

Yet everything I know so far

Is not enough.

Damage is done

 PTSD

 

1.Why do I cry towards the sky,

If I could, would I even try?

If I could reach out to my dreams

Would I drop all the heavy things?

 

2.And will I ever open up?

My lips are sealed, had too much stuff,

I want to see, the lights are shut,

Wish I could speak, my tongue is cut.

 

3.I hear it takes some time to heal,

Until your heart is made of steel,

Until your skin rejects each touch,

I think I may have healed too much.

 

4.Stop insisting, I can’t do it!

And it’s more comfortable to quit;

I’m still outnumbered by my fears,

Will spend my life counting down years.

Class wars in misery

 Envy

 

Don’t hurry up to control my mind,

I don’t work for you, I got money, I got time.

 

I don’t mind the price when I buy wine,

Don’t stare like that, I got money, I got time.

 

Books and baseball bats are intertwined,

Waiting for the moment, I got money, I got time.

 

I count money, bitches lose their minds,

I don’t work for you, I got money, I got time.

Tattoos over scars

 Edelweiss

 

1.Scars along my wrists

Bled in someone’s heart,

No cuts any more,

Now I bleed through art.

 

2.Tried to break an arm

Just to ease the pain,

But the bruises showed

Mostly on my brain.

 

3.Drooling shadows come,

Closing in on me,

But they can’t surpass

My immunity.

 

4.Flowers on my wrists

Blossomed in my heart,

White petals on cliffs

Glowing in the dark.

About my OC from Isaac Asimov's Foundation Series ~ Lana/The Mule

 Lana

 

1.If I could break in without any sound,

Would you be jealous or would you be proud?

And if you found out that my sins abound,

Yet my sleep is dreamless, deep and profound?

 

2.If you knew I’m a compulsive liar,

Would you back off, would you be on fire?

If breaking the law is my desire

And your eyes act as an amplifier?

 

3.If I could kill and lead all astray,

Continue living in the light of day,

Would you be judgmental, what would you say?

Would you come closer or drive me away?

 

4.I don’t like people, I hide in the sky,

My heart is soaking wet, my eyes are dry,

Your face in the crowd makes me blush and sigh,

I expect nothing, let’s give it a try.

Leave me alone, please leave me alone

 Distractions

 

1.I want no health, money or love,

No place in any Heaven above,

No found family or group of friends,

That’s where any sense of self ends.

 

2.I want no exotic beaches and hourglass body,

Six packs would do if I’m feeling naughty,

No fancy job or costly city breaks

In far off countries shaken by earthquakes.

 

3.No yoga rooms or therapy,

Coaches preaching about clarity;

There’s one thing I want, one thing I chase,

Never to work in an open space.

Manifest

 Antisocial

 

1.Don’t make children, they will hold onto your legs,

Throw you in competitions to see who begs,

Tie you by your weakened arms

And leave you greyed out, depleted of charms.

 

2.Don’t make children, they are exchange nowadays,

For them to see who endures love and who pays;

In wealth they’ll be free of pain,

If unobtainable always abstain.

 

3.Don’t make children, they’ll make you blackmailable,

For the darkest deeds always available;

Not until you learn to see

All humans on Earth deserve to be free.

Re:

 Here I go again

 

1.Here I go again,

Every now and then,

Let my heart be torn,

Do I never learn?

 

2.Here I go again,

Until God knows when,

Opened up a door

And fell through the floor.

 

3.Here I go my dear,

How am I still here?

Thought my heart was dead,

Look, another shred!

 

4.Here I go again,

Cared too much God damn,

Get out of my way,

I fall hard today.

Asimov - "Foundation and Empire" - two OC's hip hop dialogue

  Kalgan crush

 

Hey girl, what’s up? You’re so out of reach,

Smiling to yourself on the Kalgan beach!

 

Oh girl, you scared me! Welcome to town!

When you approach me try making a sound!

 

“Girl, never mind, I could blow a horn,

You never hear stuff when your heart is torn.”

 

“Say that again? Don’t know what you mean.

Told you my X is the last boy I’ve seen.”

 

“Seeing is one thing, you’re dreaming awake,

I’ve seen those eyes, also the heartbreak.

I’m not a savior, I’m just your friend

And hate to witness an other sad end.”

 

“Girl, you read me, I’m an open book,

And you are impatient to hear the hook.”

 

“C’mon, spill the beans, don’t make me repeat,

Name, address, number, I’ll know who to beat.”

 

“Oh, all these things, wish I knew myself.

He’s not from this world: alien or elf.

Only saw him once on the Kalgan beach,

Wanted to say hi, but then lost my speech;

Tried to stand up, follow him around,

I fell back on the sand, my legs went numb.”

 

“Lord this is bad, have mercy on her!

Such a good girl, but her mind is a blur.”

 

“Wait, I’m not done, don’t make fun just yet!

You’ll fall just by listening, c’mon, wanna bet?

His eyes, girl, his eyes, never saw such thing!

They hid a dream in a dream in a dream,

They outshined by far the bland Kalgan sun,

It’s my heart they burnt, my soul they won.

He swayed so lightly, when he walked he danced,

Like a jester with a heartbreaker stance.

His hair was dark blonde or light brown or black,

Already forgot, how odd, what the heck?

What hit me most was his slender body,

Looking so frail, acting so naughty!”

 

“Girl, I don’t know, he sounds off to me,

Why do you fall for the first creep you see?

What if he’s a thief, or a drug dealer?”

 

“Naah, chill out, he’s just a heart killer.”

 

“You seem so convinced, I trust your gut,

If you see him again, just ask him out!

And if he does anything to you

I swear to God it’s the last thing he’ll do.

Wait, news alert on my phone, what the hell?

It can’t be, it reads that Kalgan just fell!”

Unadapted and unwilling

 Take a bow

 

They say be nice to everyone

’Cuz each can help when you are down.

I say never lick where you spat,

Always forgive, never forget.

 

They say leave the room with a smile,

Maybe you come back in a while.

I say burn bridges, flames untamable,

Some garbage may even be flammable.

 

Can you restore a human’s dignity?

Leaving may be a sign of victory.

They say you must adapt or die,

I take a bow, ok, goodbye.

Better later than never

 Maybe means never

 

No more fooling around

To make me feel clever,

And painting on walls

Such silly endeavor,

I’ve grown up so much

I’m having a fever,

Shedded so much skin

I’ve started to shiver.

 

No more breaking the law

And saying whatever,

Drowning in regret,

My fault whatsoever,

My memories gone

I’m pulling the lever,

In case you are dense

Maybe means never.

The harsh reality

 We’re sorry

 

1.We’re sorry, you can’t stay here,

You’re over 35,

Good luck, may life be easy

And thank you for your time.

 

2.We’re sorry, you can’t stay here,

Your voice is too humane,

We can’t afford to pay one

Who has a human brain.

 

3.We’re sorry, you can’t stay here,

You lie and cheat too much,

Where is your sense of honesty?

You lack the human touch.

 

4.We’re sorry, what you’re saying?

We never said these things!

You can’t go on and speak up

While knowing what it brings.

What it feels like to be dead inside

 D.E.A.D.

 

Hair spread on my pillow,

I am a dead willow;

 

Ice smeared on my window,

I’m a broken widow;

 

Poison in my veins,

Leaking better days;

 

All behind sealed lips,

Drought between my hips;

 

Mind can only wail,

Won’t escape this jail;

 

Don’t come for my fate,

You’re always too late.

Corporate pigs

 Ladder

 

1.They play with words

Like illegal cigarettes,

Don’t be amazed

At how far it all gets.

 

2.They play with lies

Like fire plays with heat,

From hollow eyes

And voices of deceit.

 

3.They play with lives

Like children play with cubes,

The toys turn out

The most corrosive fumes.

 

4.They play with love

While building a ladder,

Dare take a step,

The tumble-down shatters.

Muse

 Do that again

 

1.I want to paint you

From toe to head,

Close your eyes halfway,

Do that again.

 

2.I’ll catch you inside

The tip of my pen,

Say something clever,

Say it again.

 

3.I feel like singing

Against lawmen,

You do the rap part,

Play it again.

 

4.Don’t act innocent

With me, God damn,

Just come closer and

Do that again.

War pigs

 Melt

 

1.You feel this thing I felt,

Radioactive scent,

C’mon because I’m spent,

Let’s play before we melt.

 

2.What in the world it meant,

Not money, but resent,

And to such great extent,

Let’s play before we melt.

 

3.Be living in a tent,

No worries about rent,

Won’t need another cent,

Come out before we melt.

 

4.Be living with intent,

No time for your consent

In cities of cement,

Let’s play before we melt.

 Kicking water

 

1.Don’t sway at me

If you think I’m there,

You’re missing badly,

Only hitting air.

 

2.Don’t swing at me,

I’m like fire,

Pumping oxygen

Strengthens desire.

 

3.Tread carefully,

You tread on my ground,

Your best bet is

Not making a sound.

 

4.Don’t hit so hard,

Your fists may shatter,

Lay down a bit,

You’re kicking water.

Healing without therapy / Amazing how much BS we tolerate

 In another life

 

1.In another life I would have wanted death,

Now I’m indifferent about my own breath,

It doesn’t sound like much, I call it progress.

 

2.In another life I would have sucked a bone,

Rather than eat well while being on my own,

Now it’s not like that and I think I’ve grown.

 

3.Everyone around me tells me how I’ve changed,

Yes, I’m working out, but it’s mostly my brain,

It is just what happens when you break the chain.

 

4.In another life I wasn’t fond of day,

Everything was black, but now it’s turning grey,

It doesn’t sound like much, trust me, it’s ok.

Hip hop vibes (again)

Double standards

 

1.It’s good to be bad,

Only within a limit,

As long as all the legal prescription drugs

Can heal it.

It’s good to talk back,

But not to your superior,

Else empty headed zombies will remind you

You’re inferior.

 

2.It’s good to kill some,

As long as they are evil,

But before you do make sure they’re sent up by

The devil.

Feels good to insult

One body type, the best yeah!

Or else they’ll beat you up, it will hurt more than

Influenza.

 

3.It’s good to speak truth,

Show you the middle finger

And watch your trembling fists and large dumb eyes oh,

So ginger.

I love to shed light

On all the lies, you get me,

Can’t always get away, after all, you’re not

Kaneki.

Repentance

 Point of view

 

1.Used to think life’s easy,

Like one plus one is two,

If something is false

It means it’s not true,

If something is wrong,

Then edit undo.

 

2.Used to think it’s simple,

Only black and white,

Bidimensional,

Just like day and night,

Available options:

Kiss ass, freeze or fight.

 

3.Why’d it have to happen?

To open my eyes,

What once was beauty

Now it’s only lies,

Where once stars shone brightly

Now nothing but scars.

 

4.It’s so complicates,

A betrayal, too!

When your eyes met mine,

I stayed, others flew,

And finally took in

Others’ point of view.
