The Blue Waves

We really deserved holidays, a piece of white sun in a bit of blue sky.
So we pack into an old clunker and we clear off quickly, into sandy waters.
We have to escape far from the others, and far from the showers that hound the tourists.
The world is so cold far from the coasts. For a little bit of warmth, we could risk all.
 
There's Parcels on the radio.
Big smile in front of the radars.
We get into something shining.
We get and we won't stop.
 
Reddened eyes, salt waters.
Pounding heart, blue waves.
Mellow spirit, lonely clouds.
Under this sun, we feel a bit better.
 
Reddened eyes, salt waters.
Pounding heart, blue waves.
Mellow spirit, lonely clouds.
Under this sun, we feel a bit better.
 
The sand already invited itself all over. Pieces of seaside spread on the parquet.
Until late, we laugh at everybody
And some empty bottles are bumping into each other on the ground.
 
The world seems so sweet in this landscape.
We could almost let us die with the flowers.
We hum quietly some old songs.
We would almost think touching happiness.
 
There's Parcels on the radio.
A big smile because everything is radiant.
 
Above, something shining.
In front of nothing, only the blue waves.
 
Reddened eyes, salt waters.
Pounding heart, blue waves.
Mellow spirit, lonely clouds.
Under this sun, we feel a bit better.
 
Reddened eyes, salt waters.
Pounding heart, blue waves.
Mellow spirit, lonely clouds.
Under this sun, we feel a bit better.
 
Under this sun... we feel a bit better.
 
Reddened eyes, salt waters.
Pounding heart, blue waves.
Mellow spirit, lonely clouds.
Under this sun, we feel a bit better.
 
Reddened eyes, salt waters.
Pounding heart, blue waves.
Mellow spirit, lonely clouds.
Under this sun, we feel a bit better.

Very Disco

A little bit of beer in her blonde hair
A little bit of sadness in the heart
She fires a guy who says his name is Léon
And empty a cup that disgusts her
 
She jostles she don't give fuck anymore
People are sticked together, that's disgusting
To manage, she has to elbow her way
She ends up moving away from the crowd
 
And she starts dancing
Suddenly everything shines brighter
On a 70's hit
She thinks she's the Bee Gees
 
And it's very disco
So she won't stop anymore
She's so sad when
Lights go on again
 
And it's very disco
So she won't stop anymore
She's so sad when
Lights go on again
 
A dorp of sweat on the corner of the forehead
A lot of tiredness in the pupil
Her heart beats fast, she pays more attention
She'll stop when she will have no longer energy
 
Nothing more is waiting for her outside
Except the cold that bites the face
She will be alone when the music will stop
Find again her keys and her good life
 
So she continues to dancing
Everything shines brighter and brighter
On a 70's hit
She thinks she's the Bee Gees
 
And it's very disco
So she won't stop anymore
She's so sad when
Lights go on again
 
And it's very disco
So she won't stop anymore
She's so sad when
Lights go on again
 
And this night I saw her
I think I fell under the charm
I will never see her again
Too bad, I have a lot of images in my head
 
And it's very disco
So she won't stop anymore
She's so sad when
Lights go on again
 
And it's very disco
So she won't stop anymore
She's so sad when
Lights go on again

Walking by the Night

Walking by the night, remembering, too much things.
Regret all, dreaming shamelessly, under a pink sky.
Confinding in the closed shutters.
Remorse is so easy, at 5 a.m..
Tossing off some excuses at random
and telling yourself that, despite everything, you're a good person.
 
Walking by the night, finally getting lost, finding yourself.
Walking by the night, speaking alone, and let yourself go.
 
By a window, some old friends are still fighting the sleep
and somewhere in the city, new lovers are reaching together peaks.
 
And it's at that moment that you turn up at my head,
once again, I don't even count them.
And at once, it's more than me and your two grey-green eyes,
and for a few seconds, it's freezing like in winter.
 
Walking by the night, finally getting lost, finding yourself.
Walking by the night, speaking alone, and let yourself go.
 
And finally going home and getting to sleep with a heavy wheart.
Then forgetting everything, as soon as the sun is hanging on the sheets.
 
Walking by the night, finally getting lost, finding yourself.
Walking by the night, speaking alone, and let yourself go.
 
Walking by the night, finally getting lost, finding yourself.
Walking by the night... and let yourself go...

Heaven

Curtain drawn on a wet sky, I have the conscience, pointed at you.
Under the bed, monsters are crawling so we will stay hidden under the sheets?
 
And I'm so afraid of the world, so afraid of me, so afraid of being a madman.
But everything becomes calmer when your face pierce the crowd.
 
We turn around and I no longer want to get out of the carousel.
Few sweet words on your lips and all my demons will move out.
 
And I'll end up falling from heaven.
But I don't care, I'd have seen paradise.
And I'll end up falling from heaven.
But I don't care, I'd have seen paradise.
 
And I'll toss off idle talk as the sky was avid for poetry.
I'm used to lie for appealing to people, but for you, I'll stop, I promise.
 
You have your arms outstretched like a trap and I throw my shivering heart into it.
Your sighs are chiming out like arpeggios until they terrify the metronome.
And everything starts to turn so I'll end up falling from the carousel.
 
At the first harsh words on my lips, all your smiles will move out.
 
And I'll end up falling from heaven.
But I don't care, I'd have seen paradise.
And I'll end up falling from heaven.
But I don't care, I'd have seen paradise.
 
And I'll end up falling from heaven.
 
But I don't care, I'd have seen paradise.

Everything's alright

And you needed me
I needed some silence so I told you, we'll meet... Ok, that's good.
 
You needed me, I needed some silence,
So I told you, we'll meet tomorrow, and I feel so guilty.
I won't change though. Efforts are for the others.
 
The stare into a mirror as it was hiding a whole treasure.
I forget your eyes looking at me, and your heart in disorder.
I think I won't change. Excuses are for the others.
 
So hang on the best, there are only good moments.
Then, look away when the sky rumble noisily.
There are only good moments, trust me, the rest doesn't matter.
 
And if everything's alright, while your tears are drying.
Take my face in your hands and we'll forget all the dramas.
 
And if everything's alright, let's forget our burning hearts.
We'll wait until tomorrow.
Tonight, we stay away from the flames.
 
You loved, it's better than everything.
You loved, it's better than me.
And I really like myself yet.
So for you, you can't even imagine.
And I hope it won't change. Time only flies by the others.
 
But I love you like an amateur. You spend hours to wait for me.
I'm only good at thinking only of me and I feel so guilty.
I won't change though, I think I'm not made for others.
 
So hang on the best, there are only good moments.
Then, look away when the sky rumble noisily.
There are only good moments, trust me, the rest doesn't matter.
 
And if everything's alright, while your tears are drying.
Take my face in your hands and we'll forget all the dramas.
 
And if everything's alright, let's forget our burning hearts.
We'll wait until tomorrow.
Tonight, we stay away from the flames.
 
And if everything's alright, while your tears are drying.
Take my face in your hands and we'll forget all the dramas.
 
And if everything's alright, let's forget our burning hearts.
We'll wait until tomorrow.
Tonight, we stay away from the flames.

Brightly you shine

Brightly you shine
only to others, you, my beautiful sun,
but to me, poor me, you seem gloomy and dull.
So in bitter tears
I spend my life.
Ah, if I could at least ask her for help!
Then I could die happy,
and all my grief would, alas, be at an end.

You follow, o beautiful Clori, a fugitive heart

You follow, o beautiful Clori, a fugitive heart,
and mine you flee, that burns only with love.
Ah, do not flee the one who loves you,
and despise him who does not yearn for thee!
And if thou longest for love,
love me alone, for I love thee alone.
 
2021.10.12.

To you, while my heart

To you, while my heart
with sighs of mine, sends its message:
'My soul' it says to you, 'I burn with love,
my soul, for you I burn with love',
oh, do not be silent,
but answer, at least with your eyes:
'Burn and die, my heart,
for love of you, as I do'.

The right direction

I'm here,
In a world that
Spins around in vain
Far away from your sun.
It rains, but I
Will do something
To feel once again
All the warmth I lack now
And have some peace of mind I lack now
And the glow in my eyes I lack now,
The right direction I lack now,
I lack now.
 
What are we supposed to do? When you reach the bottom,
When the world spins around, but you are left alone feeling empty,
When everything's broken except for this mirror,
What do you think? Now you see yourself old.
You run away in circles, night and day feel the same,
You're awake while sleeping, you're dreaming while awake.
While you're waiting for the sun, while you're waiting for the best,
While you're dying because you're alive,
You can write words that flow like a river
To the light of a candle.
It's right there that you suffer, with your hand over your heart.
It's you and the moon, but it doesn't even see you,
You only look for what you can't have.
You drink, but there's a hole in the glass,
I wonder how do they feel those who look at the rain falling.
 
I'm here,
In a world that
Spins in vain
Far away from your sun.
It rains, but I
Will do something
In order to feel once again
All the warmth I lack now
And have some peace of mind I lack now
And the glow in my eyes I lack now,
The right direction I lack now,
I lack now.
 
I created my own world, because
I didn't feel like I really belong to ours.
You called me a cunt because I make the time dirty1,
But it's only because I'm exploding inside and I feel cold among the flames.
No, I don't get angry if you talk behind my back,
Because you'll be left behind if you don't get up, man.
I believe in God, because it's true that something is in me,
I know this for a fact and no, I don't have to prove it to you,
Yeah, to you, I don't have to prove it to you, to you.
You know, I changed my smile, I took advantage of the hype
Just to get to those who are never alright.
If you ask me how I am, it's because you actually already know it.
 
I'm here,
In a world that
Spins in vain
Far away from your sun.
It rains, but I
Will do something
In order to feel once again
All the warmth I lack now
And have some peace of mind I lack now
And the glow in my eyes I lack now,
The right direction I lack now,
I lack now.

At a concert at a disco

You junket until morning, good fun
Don't stop, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, your face is laughing
All together, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, full hall today
Left, right, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, head drunk
Even louder, come on, come on!
 
A great agitation in the disco
Drink after drink, the bartender doesn't know what's going on, ooo...
The night is too short to sit down, time to start the show
Delicious cakes are waiting for you yet
 
You junket until morning, good fun
Don't stop, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, your face is laughing
All together, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, full hall today
Left, right, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, head drunk
Even louder, come on, come on!
 
You hear sounds that caress your body
Everyone around is still not enough, ooo...
In a few words a clear message, life goes on and time is running out
So don't waste your life and don't wait
 
You junket until morning, good fun
Don't stop, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, your face is laughing
All together, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, full hall today
Left, right, come on, come on!
You junket until morning, head drunk
Even louder, come on, come on!
 
And now all hands, all hands up
Even more, even more!
And now all hands, all hands up
Even more, even more!
And now all hands, all hands up
Even more, even more!
And now all hands, all hands up
Even more, even more!

Bajo la tormenta

There’s no me but me

There’s no me but me
 
One more night full of tears on my sullen face for the pile
Today I added another day of constant, neverending life the pile too
Every time I looked forward to “tomorrow” when things might just go well for me,
I hid another “today” behind my dresser
I saw myself in the reflection, a person who’s easily shaken time and again
By hearts that changes in a flash
But the moment I closed my eyes, thinking it wasn’t all so bad,
I actually understood what tomorrow would bring
 
There’s no me but me
Which is obvious
So I’d like to live my life
Clearing out the feelings that aren’t worth it
Isn’t that a normal thing to do?
 
I heard someone say they were worried that I’d broken through my shell
But I’m no longer in that shell I’m supposed to be confined to
Go ahead and try to be me. See?
You wanted to, didn’t you?
Smoke coiled around me through words left unspoken
 
It’s too embarrassing for me to say out loud
But if I just whittled it down
To the things only I’m capable of defending,
Then, that might not actually be all that bad
 
There’s no me but me
Which is obvious
So I’d like to live my life
Clearing out the feelings that aren’t worth it
There’s no me but me
No one can replace me
I threw myself into tomorrow and opened my eyes
Trying not to run away with the today I’d picked out for myself
 
There’s no me but me
Seems you’re much the same
Sounds like you’re irreplaceable too
We fought with our backs to each other
So I’m not scared anymore
I’ll wait for the dead of night to pass
I think today, I’d like to live my life clearing out the feelings that aren’t worth it
I breathed in

The Instant

Where will the centuries be, where will the dream
of swords that the Tartars dreamed of,
where the strong walls they leveled,
where the Adam Tree and the other Log?
 
The present is alone. The memory
erects time. Succession and deception
it is the routine of the clock. Year
it is no less vain than vain history.
 
Between dawn and night there is an abyss
of agonies, of lights, of cares

The mulatto

Versions:
With my woggish mulatto's face,
Wandering Jew's or Greek shepherd's
my shock of hair, so dishevelled,
With my faded eyes in my face,
that make me look like a dreamer,
though I now dream not so often,
With my prowler's and lurker's hands,
hands of a rover, musician
that looted so many gardens...
With my mouth that has drunk so much,
that has bitten and kissed and kissed
yet has always remained thirsty..
 
With my woggish mulatto's face,
Wandering Jew's or Greek shepherd's
my robber's face, vagabond's face,
With my skin rubbed but left unhurt
by the sunlight of all summers
and by every bit of skirt..
With my heart that knew how to hurt
as much as it got hurt
without
making too big a fuss for that,
With my soul that hasn't any
more chance of Salvation, really,
to avoid the Purgatory..
 
With my woggish mulatto's face,
Wandering Jew's or Greek shepherd's
my shock of hair that's dishevelled,
I shall call in, sweet captive , you
O , my twin soul, Fountain of youth,
and I'll gulp down your twenty years..
And I'll be a prince for you, dear,
A dreamer or a teenager,
As you like it , or want to choose..
And we'll turn every day we live
into an eternity of love
that we'll enjoy
so much we'll die...

Stillness

Can you still hear me
I'm there
Where we were completely lost
Where you said
That words don't make sense anymore
 
Do you need something?
Can I
Get it for you
I'd like to bring it to you
You have to ask for it
 
Where you are there is
Stillness, stillness, stillness
Like freshly fallen snow
Like a new land
Like the first day
Of the new year
 
There where you are
Stillness, stillness, stillness
Like a sanctuary
Encircling
That nobody understands
But everyone feels
 
I lose myself
Just like you
But I'm worse
Losing myself in you
You always
Were so impossible
 
Are you coming out of me
Lets go out
You show your face
It makes me happy
To see it
You don't have to talk
Just get up
 
Where you are there is
Stillness, stillness, stillness
Like freshly fallen snow
Like a new land
Like the first day
Of the new year
 
There where you are
Stillness, stillness, stillness
Like a sanctuary
Encircling
That nobody understands
But everyone feels

The Rest Stop

With an ice cream in front of me
and death in the mind
sitting at a bar in Piazza Marina,
I watch two flies love each other on my hand,
like heartbeats
I hear hammers beating on the rails,
I wonder why I live,
what cry or what fall awaits me around the corner,
I remember another hot sun like this
on my shaved head of a soldier,
another wait, another escape, another burrow.
 
Now I pay, I get up,
this day is wrong,
this one and the others before,
I am an unhappy man.

I'll drink everyday

Fake laughs these are, I know the fake stands.
It's gonna pass when I turn my back, gonna pass when you go back.
There's something that's missing, somewhere and still missing.
It seems meaningless to you but it hurts me so dear.

I'll drink everyday (I'll drink everyday) and I will laugh at your face.
I'll drink everyday and I will laugh at your face.
I'll enjoy everyday. (I'll enjoy everyday
As I trip and fall and if you pull me up at all,
I still won't believe you, you were behind me I know.
Your hands never leave my neck, your words don't grow stale.
When you throw yourself down, It'll suit you if you shove me as well.
As I trip and fall and if you pull me up at all,
I still won't believe you, you were behind me I know.

Santiano

It's a famous three-master, thin like a bird
Heave high! !
Eighteen knots, four hundred tons
I'm proud to be a sailor
 
Keep the wave right, keep the wind right
Heave high! Santiano!
If it's God's will, always straight on
We'll reach as far as San Francisco
 
Oh, the wind was foul and the seas ran high
Heave away! Santiano!
She shipped it green and none went by
Along the plains of Mexico!
 
Keep the wave right, keep the wind right
Heave high! Santiano!
If it's God's will, always straight on
We'll reach as far as San Francisco
 
I set off for many long months, leaving Margot
Heave high! Santiano!
My heart was so heavy when I thought of her
While rounding the lights of Saint Malo
 
Keep the wave right, keep the wind right
Heave high! Santiano!
If it's God's will, always straight on
We'll reach as far as San Francisco
 
We swear by rote, and want of more
Heave away! Santiano!
But now we're through so we'll go on shore
Along the plains of Mexico
 
Keep the wave right, keep the wind right
Heave high! Santiano!
If it's God's will, always straight on
We'll reach as far as San Francisco
 
Keep the wave right, keep the wind right
Heave high! Santiano!
If it's God's will, always straight on
We'll reach as far as San Francisco

A Short Tune

Time flies, yet you cannot slow it down,
Hundreds of years shall pass in the blink of an eye,
The vast sky stretches beyond what one can see,
Tens of thousands of cyclic change have taken place,
Even the draping hair of Magu,
Half has turned into the color of frost.
 
Billions of laughter has been heard from the King of the East and the fairy,
I want to take a joyride back to the east with the six dragons, and hang the sun at the Fusang tree.
Using the spoon made from the Big Dipper to spoons out good wine,
Beseeching the dragons to drink a chalice.
Not because I want to be rich or famous, but to stop the time for all and forever young.

Earphons and a Chorus of Cicadas

I need a holiday
But it's not like I wish for everyday to be a holiday
Cause I wouldn't be able to bear the pain
of knowing it's not true freedom
 
Not bad enough to throw away, but not good enough to really talk about
Downing the cheap vending machine drinks, today is distinctively summer
I dashed across the burning asphalt, its heat proportional to the blazing sun
A solitary journey in an unknown world - a summer fantasy I've longed for since days past
 
Streets without a shadow of a person but filled with heat shimmers, from my earphones leaked out a melody
But it was drowned out by the singing cicadas, and sounds of summer clad in wind
The unease of pent up emotions, unable to let out yesterday's thoughts
This consdendation of anxiety and regret, will be washed away by the evening rain in this summer world
 
I just want to be coloured in a summer dream
Even after erasing all my unnecessary thoughts, this incessant crying is as annoying as ever
'Look I'm alright, there's no problem at all'
I throw up these thoughts of fake bravado and become so empty even my presence becomes permeable
 
I just want to be coloured in a summer dream
I'm begging you, please, don't wake me up.
 
The long vanished shade under the trees, the sky that's cried itself dry
Where did it all go? What is this voice I'm still hearing
Wallowing in my tears, in a small corner of summer
I'll pray that I can smile.
 
As in this moment I just want to be coloured in today
If every time I end up wishing for something, I lose something in return
 
I'll get rid of the me who continues to wish.
No matter what I may lose tomorrow, I swear to continue moving towards the future
If I'm going to end up forgetting the colour of that summer,
Then as payment along with these tears, I'd like to be able to sing with a smile once again.
 
I need a holiday
But it's not like I wish for everyday to be a holiday
Cause I wouldn't be able to bear the pain
of knowing it's not true freedom

If you only knew

(intro)
I gaze at the rising day in the distance
A day without joy, without reason
I weep thinking about the brief hours
Hours of love and abandonment
 
If you only knew how much I cried
If you only knew how much everything has changed
O my love! Yes, you would come back
If you only knew
 
How lonely I have been since you left,
How much I suffered in my despair,
O my love! Yes you would come back
If only you knew...
 
...that so much pleasure and so much joy
would could come back for a word from you
 
If you only knew how much I cried
If you only knew how much everything has changed
O my love! Yes, you would come back
If you only knew

Wellerman*

Volt egyszer egy hajó, ami kihajózott
A neve az volt, hogy Teáskanna**
A szél feltámadt, a hajó orra mélyre merült
Ó, fújj, marcona fiaim, fújj!
 
Hamarosan érkezik a Wellerman
Hogy nekünk cukrot, teát és rumot hozzon
Egy napon, mikor a vágásnak*** vége
Eltávot kapunk és elmegyünk.
 
Két hete sem volt, hogy kifutott
Mikor útjában egy simabálna**** került
A kapitány mindenkit munkára rendelt és esküdözött
Hogy vontatóra veszi*5 a bálnát
 
Hamarosan érkezik a Wellerman
Hogy nekünk cukrot, teát és rumot hozzon
Egy napon, mikor a vágásnak vége
Eltávot kapunk és elmegyünk.
 
Mielőtt a csónak a vízre került volna
A bálna farka feljött és elkapták
Mindenki az oldalra, szigonyozta és gyilkolta
Mikor az lemerült a mélybe
 
Hamarosan érkezik a Wellerman
Hogy nekünk cukrot, teát és rumot hozzon
Egy napon, mikor a vágásnak vége
Eltávot kapunk és elmegyünk.
 
Egyetlen kötelet sem vágtak át, a bálnát nem engedték el
A kapitányt nem a kapzsiság hajtotta
Hanem igazi bálnavadász volt
Vontatta hát tovább
 
Hamarosan érkezik a Wellerman
Hogy nekünk cukrot, teát és rumot hozzon
Egy napon, mikor a vágásnak vége
Eltávot kapunk és elmegyünk.
 
Negyven napig, vagy még több,
A kötél hol megereszkedett, hol megfeszült megint
Minden csónakukat elvesztették, csak négy volt
De a bálna még mindig húzott
 
Hamarosan érkezik a Wellerman
Hogy nekünk cukrot, teát és rumot hozzon
Egy napon, mikor a vágásnak vége
Eltávot kapunk és elmegyünk.
 
Amennyire én tudom, a hajsza még mindig tart
A kötelet nem vágták el, a cetet nem engedték
A Wellerman teljesítette a szokásos rendelést
Bátorítva ezzel a kapitányt, legénységet, mindenkit
 
Hamarosan érkezik a Wellerman
Hogy nekünk cukrot, teát és rumot hozzon
Egy napon, mikor a vágásnak vége
Eltávot kapunk és elmegyünk.

I'll Keep My Wishes In Your Heart

I'll keep my wishes in your heart
Come here my love, I'll keep my life within you
 
Why do your eyes seem so empty?
Where did all those love-filled words go?
I'll put my smile on your lips
 
Tears stream down your face, my heart cries
You get hurt and I feel pain
I'll put my tongue over your wounds
 
Love, take hold of my arm
Say something with your mouth
I'll put the whole word at your feet

The health bulletin

I lost my jowls, I lost my paunch
And this in a way so clear, so sudden
That some suppose I have in me an evil that does not forgive
Who laughs at Aesculapius and leaves him stunned
 
The Loch Ness monster no longer bringing its dime
During hollow times in certain gazettes
Systematically, obituaries like
To shroud me under sausage wrapper1
 
Now, tired of serving as a punching ball
Of the gloomy tales I'm the star of 2
I, who am well, who breathes health
I step forward and scream the whole truth
 
All the truth, gentlemen, I deliver it to you
If I left the ranks of the over-two-hundred-pounds
It's the because of Mimi, Lisette, Ninon
And many others, I don't remember names
 
If I betrayed the fat, the chubby, the obese
It's that I fuck, that I fuck, that I fuck
Like a buck, a ram, a beast, a brute
I am haunted: the heat, the heat, the heat, the heat
 
Let me be understood, I have the soul of a satyr
And his behavior, but that doesn't mean
That I have the talent, the genius, far from it
Not a single one yet shouted “bravo!' to me
 
Among other fine flowers, I count on my pink
List a decent number of journalists' wives
Who, thinking I'm done, put all their faith
To give me happiness one last time
 
It's beautiful, it's generous, it's big, it's magnificent
And, in the most pornographic positions
I give them the honors with the buttocks down
On piles of drafts, piles of unsold
 
And that's what makes that when your legitimate (wife)
Show their buttocks to the people as well as to your intimate friends
You can often read, printed backwards
The echoes, the little gossip, the in-briefs
 
And if you hear surging through the plinths
From the boudoir of these ladies groans and complaints
Do not say: 'It is Uncle Georges who is expiring'
It's just the angels who sigh 3
 
And if you hear screaming like in (nineteen)fourteen
'Arise ! Arise the dead! », Do not bulge the torso
It's the exalted wife of an editor
Which prompts me to assault once again
 
Certainly, it happens to me, flip side
To sometimes leave feathers in battle
Hippocrates says: 'Yes, these are cockscombs'
And Gallien replies: 'No, it's gonococci'
 
Both are right, sometimes Venus gives you
Wicked kicks that a good Christian forgives
Because if they cause harm to manly attributes
They seldom endanger existence
 
Well, yes, I have all that, ransom of my frenzy
The boat for Kythera is quarantined
But I haven't yet, no, no, no, three times no
This mysterious evil whose name we hide
 
If I betrayed the fat, the chubby, the obese
It's that I fuck, that I fuck, that I fuck
Like a buck, a ram, a beast, a brute
I am haunted: the heat, the heat, the heat, the heat

Speed of light

Strange dreams, distant spaces
The journey is my home
People always (think) only of today
So that I don't ever have to think
Checking the phone every two minutes to see if the others are still there
Every three minutes my mum asks me if I'm ever getting there
24 hours, yet it feels like it's nothing
I run
 
In the speed of light
time stands still
In the speed of light
I can kill the time
I dissolve the faster I run, everything expands
In the speed of light
time stands still
 
A thousand stars, oh how I long to be the most beautiful one
But I learn, from the distance, everything can seem huge
I compare myself, and it's not enough, if you only look above
Failing more beautifully, I have to go on, wonder if there's an ending
 
In the speed of light
time stands still
In the speed of light
I can kill the time
I dissolve the faster I run, everything expands
In the speed of light
time stands still

Broken Face

Your laughter sounds like it comes from a tape
You hold your glass like a shield in your hand
Your pride is framed by black hair
That's all that I found remaining
 
The day is long, the day is empty
It never ends
The pain is dull, the pain is strong
Crawls into your hands
The city is bright, the city speaks
With a thousand tongues
The breath bites, the breath stings
Pain in your lungs
You turn away as it breaks
Your broken face
Your broken face
 
You are, as always, on guard
If someone asks, of course you are fine
With a mounted bayonet
In the next bed
You gather fresh anger
 
The sweat is wet, the sweat is cold
Creates no closeness
The storm distracts, the storm holds
Until I go
The wine is red, the wine is white
Makes you drunk
Your star shines bright and cold like ice
Soon it goes down
A dull thud as it breaks
Your broken face
Your broken face
Your broken face

Peahen

In the garden at midnight the peahen said,
'Chana-na-chan! Look madam, how my bangles ring!
How my bangles ring upon my arms!'
 
I, in my shame, melted away*
Now that everyone had heard my love story
The story slipped from my lips amidst conversation, amidst conversation,
'Chana-na-chan! Look madam, how my bangles ring!'
Who knows at what time my love leaves home,
When I leave in my veil, it brings pouring rain,
My thirst is not quenched by the downpour, by the downpour,
'Chana-na-chan! Look madam, how my bangles ring!'
 
My love, on my bare bed I lay awake all night,
My sleep followed you as you left,
And my peace left with you as well.
'Chana-na-chan! Look madam, how my bangles ring!'
My heart leaps** and my chest bursts like a drum
Oh drummer, don't leave
Hey drummer, don't leave

Lies

When you look at me
I see it well, it's really true
Your gaze goes away
And passes through me
To lose itself beyond me
And when I ask you
Repeatedly what you're thinking of
Do you believe that I don't feel
That you answer me with lies?
 
Do you know that I like your lies?
Do you know that I like your lies?
 
You can lower your eyes
Ruffle my hair
Say whatever you like
I don't believe you
 
When you kiss me
I tell myself yes of course it's true
As long as he kisses me
Of course he's hooked
As everything moves along and wears out
And when you smile at me
With a distracted air, it's true
Do you think that I don't see
That you're thinking about everything except me?
 
Do you know that I like your lies?
Do you know that I like your lies?
 
As long as you lie
You're holding on to me
The same way I hold onto you
Even in spite of you
 
But you don't know
Me, though, I know that it's true
That you are like that
Because I know you
And you don't know yourself
I only live for you
You only live for yourself
And yet you without me
That won't work out, don't you think so?
 
Do you know that I like your lies?
Do you know that I like your lies?
 
As long as you cheat on me
And you come back
It means that you can't
Do without me
 
I like your duplicity
Alas, alas, it's true
Do you think that I don't hear
When you call me
By all kinds of new names?
If one day you leave me
Don't worry, it's true
Me, I will disappear
You won't hear anything more about me
 
I will miss your lies
I will miss your lies
 
Keep on lying
I won't deprive you
As for me, I can't
Live without you
As for me, I can't
Live without you

people are weird and i don’t know what love is

people are weird and
i don’t know what love is
i really don’t know
light and easy mind
words that i can’t even remember
we become numb
beautiful things
where is all
you cowards
just like me
people are weird and
i don’t know what love is

Opaque blanket of snow

This opaque blanket of snow
Probably, holds some meaning
For that I collected
I pray
 
Ah, the shape of my heart
formed in my childhood,
Brought me back to this time
I spent with you
 
In solitude I was overflowing with loneliness
Unable to say anything, I hid it all
Memories of your crying profile
pile up like snow
 
I drop you into the restless
depths of my heart
because you bring light to me
The dream ends...
 
This opaque blanket of snow
Probably, holds some meaning
For that I collected
I pray
 
I feel like I can still remember
Even your habits and movements
One day, it'll all melt and become pure again
 
Ah, this place I spent time with you
The mornings I'm not
by your side
pile up like snow...
 
Your words and voice
Ring in my ears
Even though we were so tightly knit...
 
My murky feelings
Pushed you away
The words I didn't mean to say increase...
 
I really wanted to convey it
That I love you
But I couldn't put power into it...
 
Laugh for me one last time
Will your smile, one day
melt into the snow, and become pure again?
Under this opaque blanket of snow
The days that we spent together
and the love we had, are melting away...
