|
In which a mask is applied not only shielding the ugliness. |
|
The loneliness weaving wonders |
|
Left me alone as daydawn came. |
|
The birdcry's timbre seemed like thunder - to spit on me - it was the lark. |
|
And on these daybreaks of my life |
|
Kept closed my eyes for seconds more. |
|
When dreams freeflow the bending mind |
|
Of all the grief and fear be gone. |
|
And on these daybreaks of your life |
|
Just close your eyes and live within |
|
Oh let them flow and bend your mind |
|
Try to believe the fear is gone. |
|
Start piercing me you wicked ghosts! |
|
Your voices sneak from red-rubbed lips! |
|
Those tangling whispers - want to soothe me, |
|
But start what |
|
I've never dared to speak of. |
|
As slowly as |
|
I dropped the cape - the slumber sweet as velvet fell - |
|
I saw the smiling face of a day that blew away my ease at once. |
|
Not love not happiness |
|
I dreamed of |
|
No hope for this so rotten live? |
|
How can I tame? |
|
How can I hide |
|
This twisted me |
|
I cannot fight? |
|
Not love not happieness you dreamed of |
|
Lose hope for your so rotten live. |
|
You cannot tame, just try to hide |
|
It's you - |
|
It's me - you try to hide! |
|
Start piercing me you wicked ghosts! |
|
Your voices sneak from red-rubbed lips! |
|
Those tangling whispers - want to sooth me, |
|
But start what |
|
I've never dared to speak of. "Goodbye to Eric" |
|
I heard my screams |
|
And hoped that echos would reload in me |
|
And strengthen me for this inhumanizing task |
|
I got up and applied a mask of velvet black - square as the one it hosts. "Goodbye to Eric the human-faced - Shall he be known through the mask he wears". "Shall fear be forever repelled by the ways, We'll walk; and we'll melt into the face, Of all bodies and ever for all I'll become: be gone now Eric - be gone - be gone". |
