The story of Two

See those people there

Two fishes in the wind
Yearning for water

Two dissected spirits
Moaning for redemption

Two innocent children
Playing grimreaper

Two wandering souls
Basking in hell

Just two young people
Disguised by age

The sidecar ride

The tyres kiss the tarmac
Pushing us forward
Past the trees and bushes
Past the men and women

Steal into a life
A man cleans his roof
Children go to Sunday prayers
All watching as we rush by

Be amazed as I go by
Something new, different
A motorbike but more
It's little baby setlles beside it

Bodysurfing

Waiting
For a knight in armor shining
For a dream to start growing
For Peace to stop hiding
For a wave to begin surfing

Ride it
Get lost in the moment
Believe in no tommorow
Stop worrying, no sorrow
Until you stop at the shore

Laughing
At the man who is smitten
At the dream flying
At the children playing
At the wave smashing

La petite môme

La petite môme
La pauvre petite môme
Elle est degoutant
Elle est effrayant

Mais essayez vous
Attendez, attendez
Elle va commmencer
de chanter, oui, chanter

Ecoutes sa voie
Et, ben, voila
Tu dis 'ohlala'
'C'est incroyable ça'

Puis maintenant
Elle n'est pas effrayant
Elle n'est pas degoutant
La petite môme

Beauty Of Fools

Cake your face
Watch as it flakes
Was it worth it?
Did you gain beauty?

Show the little girl
About the fake world
Where image rules
Beauty of fools

Spend hours at the mirror
Perfecting every error
Apply it all the time
For beauty divine

I don't agree
And when you look at me
See my perfections
The bumps and the wrinkles
At the same time natural beauty

The crying angel

What angel sits there
Hugging a doll
With tears in her eyes

She slowly whispers
Secrets in her ear
With tears in her eyes

Who but that doll sees?
The nights she spends
With tears in her eyes

Her mother doesn't understand
Why everyday she wakes
With tears in her eyes

Her father knows
As he puts a finger to her lips
He holds her tight,
And rapes her every night.

Terror

You see her covered
And back away
Leaving her with her black robe

She could be kind
Be the nicest person on Earth
But you don't see that

She could be smart
Be the modern Einstein
But you don't know that

She could be beautiful
Be the one you've been looking for
But she's covered

To you she is a danger
Waiting to explode
You took away her kindness
Stripped her of her genius

Breathing

Pitter-patter of their feet
I take a bite of my wafel
A man on the other side stares at me
As I slurp my slagroom

'Am I going, to leave my trash behind? '
No sir I'm a tree hugger
The flowers are like my best friend
And the bushes are like my brother

'Am I planning something crazy? '
No sir I'm a peace lover.
I plan to get a Law degree
and I would never dare cause terror

What am I really doing there?
I just slowed down to take a breath
We cannot rush through our life
Sometimes we just need a rest

Quick Question

Seductive smiles singing stories,
Seeing swirling silver screams,

If you see the truth,
Will you become its protector?

Become.
Believe.
Beloved.

If you hear the voices,
Will you shut them off?

Hear hurt hunted,
Holding him hostage,

If you hold the people
Will you curse the rhythm?

Curse.

Confined living

Words carefully said
Boundaries slowly laid
Passions made dead
Friendships made instead

We could sleep under stars
In a country full of scars
That you dream of
Like a lover after divorce

We could lose ourselves in the moment
Let go of this foolish lent
Succumb to desire
Turn ashes into fire

We could forget the work
Forget the boredom and the sulk
Pour it all down the drain
Go dance in the rain
