Rock’n’Roll Girl

She’s giving you the chills when she’s around
you can’t be yourself, about it, there’s no doubt

You moved on too quickly because you are impatient
she forced you to wait by calling you self-complacent

An impulsive passion has grown that deep inside burns
she is no game to play with, wait till she returns

The hope remains while the waiting still goes on
she rocked your mind and left you hanging upon

You are willing to wait for as long as you have to
a younger you, the rock’n’roll girl made you get back to

One More Last Time

addiction, bad choices, cheating yourself, life, one more last time, personal

I promised myself I wouldn’t do it again
I promised myself I wouldn’t do it again
I promised myself I wouldn’t do it again
I never kept that promise yet again

Last time was the last time I would cheat myself
Last time was the last time I would cheat myself
Last time was the last time I would cheat myself
This time is the last time I will cheat myself

Countless “last times” for what the heart desires
kind of like addiction kind of like burning fires
there’s nothing to compete with this great lie
you know there will be one more last time

The memory remains inside my mind
a heavy day for the soul to get by
now that the number has turned nine
I was late yet I managed to pass by

The walk we took that day in the afternoon
it will never fade at least not anytime soon
there is progress in what we talked through
however minor which makes me feel blue

With all the things piling up to be done
I wonder if I ‘ll manage or just give up
this doubt wasn’t there during the last walk
but the exact opposite: way up above and more

Far Away

Always tired
always on the run
always positive
always fun

Sometimes grumpy
sometimes mad
sometimes crazy
sometimes bad

Seldom a bitch
seldom a shade
seldom not cool
seldom to break

Always welcome
Seldom to stay
Sometimes here
Always far away

The Last Walk VIII: Commemoration

Worldwide crisis, caused by rapidly spreading human virus
I haven’t forgotten though, why am I feeling so righteous?

There’s a bee in the bush in front of me while at the place
in the midst of the ceremony I can’t follow at the priest’s pace

This day, eight years ago, I remember having our very last walk
cannot believe how fast time has passed, how life changed us all

That last walk that we felt so full with what we talked about
still can’t believe how things since then have turned around

And yet a song comes these days into my mind
still wondering though, is it wrong or right,

to publicly share it online?

A Time of Reflection

It’s been years since you last seen them
It’s been years you ‘ve been listening to them
and now you are watching them live
and it’s just better than the last time

And you think of all the years that have passed
you realize that only yet you have to understand
that life has gone by and you are still alive
and music has been your only way to escape time

Last night in Vienna was amazing you will remember
not because you ‘ve listened to the same old songs
but for a moment you went back in time and saw
your younger self not being able to think of this at all

And yet, you are here still in the same mood
when listening to them, is getting to you for good
music does this to you and you feel younger in time
more experienced and still, music makes you feel alive

Procrastination Flow

It has to be done
the question is
when?

Perhaps start right now
and if not now
when?

Some time later I presume
when things will be over
exactly, when?

Last moment awaits
will you be ready
when?

No sleep till dawn
hopefully you will learn
when?

Problem Remains the Same

life goals, overcoming fears, personal, real world, weaknesses

You thought you could get away
that you could avoid it all along
and tried to get another taste
because of the initial problem you forgot

Back at fighting with your demons
back at trying to avoid it all
why not try to face the problem
and stop thinking you are about to fall

You know that you are bad at it
you know that most likely you will fail
you may be stronger than a decade ago
but the problem remains the same

Instead of trying to get away with it
try dealing with it right now
you never tried that, you know
and it’s the time to put it in the test somehow

Speed of Life

Still haven’t found the one
whose life clock synchronizes with mine
whose speed of life coordinates with mine
who can escort me in love

Problem lies within
I should be searching for her
I should not be waiting for her
I should let her in

The one to be with me
such a joke to be found in the world
such a sad story to say to the world
is the one to set me free

Still haven’t found the one
who can escort me in love
problem lies within
I should let her in
the one to be with me
travels roughly at the same speed

Reality Check

changes, life, personal, real world, reality check, self advice

It’s hard to accept yourself as it is
you always push and push for him to be ahead
then you get angry when someone tells you this
as if he or she said something wrong instead

You think you are selfish and indeed you are
that is why you are still alone in the dark
trying to find out who the hell you are
you have a long way yet before you embark

Have you not get tired with all of these yet?
have you not noticed of the same mistake again?
you are obviously wrong if you are still in debt
change your perspective before you lose yourself
