A Midsummer Night's Dream

 Windows

 

1.We’d sleep at night with windows wide open,

When the room melts we can melt away,

We’d sleep at night with windows wide open,

If it gets unpleasant, why would we stay?

 

2.We’d sleep outside on the balcony floor,

Cool summer breeze embracing our nap,

No air conditioning, fans, anything,

Newest technology couldn’t keep up.

 

3.Then we’d wake up with windows still open,

Dreams would fill the room, some lush, some sad,

I’d turn my back to the world once again,

Courtains would dance, I wouldn’t give a damn.

To the family

 Soul

 

1.There’s nothing you can do,

You have to understand,

Thank you for standing by my side,

Now let go of my hand.

 

2.There’s nothing you can do,

I have to sing my song,

All I can do is play pretend,

But that will not last long.

 

3.There’s nothing you can do,

Rejoice I won so much,

Because things would have gone downhill

With the wrong entourage.

 

4.Studying and reading

Can’t make me go astray

And mute the beat inside my soul,

It’s in my DNA.

 

5.There’s nothing you can do,

I say for your own good,

Lie in the shadow of a tree

Instead of sculpting wood.

Broken machine

 Future you

 

1.If I am full of something,

That is only regret,

Of not knowing in time that

I give less than I get.

 

2.If I am full of nothing,

That is only myself,

A glass vase with dead flowers,

Daydreaming to be wet.

 

3.If I am full of something,

Imaginary friends,

It’s like a mirror breaking

When day comes and night ends.

 

4.And all I know is nothing,

Except a thing or two,

Whatever you endeavour,

Don’t neglect future you.
