its been one

hell of a week
hell of a year
hell of a decade
tears for fear
jumpin the cracks
tween right n the wrong
ridin the subway
singin my song

on a string we hang
its such a fragile thread
5oo count sheets as we
make our own bed
seein red
as we turn another page
whether or not 9/11 was planned or staged

ive been a rec cluse
foot loose n folly free
half the minutes spent climbin up a tree
but its old
and trees one day fall
build your strong foundation
moss roots n all

stay away from what the tv calls the news
false reporting nonsence bringeth me the blues
freedom of choice? but not when someone
else gets to choose
all is phony baby
all be a ruse

so i frequent these diggs
it be a real cyper place
real folks fake folks
habitate this space
my space
and i would have it no other way
its been one hell
one hell of a day

so what is happieness to you
is it the gum on your shoe
is it the lines on your face
as your travel mind n space
or is it what it should be
the last true meaning of the free
for me its the family
and what they mean to me

i ramble on
well this is really nothin novel
ive been on the mountain and in
the cave did i grovel
ive talked so much shit
for wich they still dont make a big enough shovel
and i hide in my cavern its the one
i call me hovel

its been one hell of a life
so far as i can tell
so far so good so sue me
if you would
with cheer
with beer
dont sneer

cause all thats saind in done its been one

hell of a year

Wat als er een vorm zou bestaan
om liefde in te gieten en een huis te bouwen
waarin we ons beschermd en vrij voelen

Voorlopig heeft er enkel passie bestaan
en met haar een hoop weggegooide beloftes
Tot nu toe was er enkel een slachtveld, een tekort aan adem

Er zijn gedichten, natuurlijk, en liedjes van anderen
Er zijn bomen die schrikken wanneer ik voorbijloop
Omdat de pijn hen even het licht beneemt

Er zijn bedelaars op straat, de troost dat duizenden anderen
steeds weer de liefde mislopen zijn, er zijn talloze verkrachte vrouwen
bedrogen mannen, kinderen met enkel een huid als huis

Dat is er allemaal en daarmee kan ik leven
‘Fifty ways to leave your lover’ en toch steeds dezelfde pijn
Maar wat als er een vorm zou bestaan voor echte liefde

Het houden van een wimperslag, het voelen van een hart dat klopt
een buik bekijken die op en neer gaat enkel door te ademen
een manier om je nooit bedreigd te voelen

Een manier voor jou om me nooit te bedriegen
Een mogelijkheid voor jou om van alles en iedereen te houden
En van mij nog net iets meer, van mij nog net iets hoger


Sorry, can't answer your song in another way than with a poem... not a real poem actually, more a thought wink

Btw sweetie, by posting some of my own words I didn't want to avoid to show my appreciation for your song... lyrics are hard to understand in another language, but I've known for a long time you're a poet...not only the king of this site, but a very sensible poetic person in real life as well. I don't need to meet you to know thar.

Many of the things on this globe might be phony, but you sure aren't. kiss2
