Forward Away Gone

It’s the day, I know
Forward on the road we go
A thousand thoughts that nowhere run
And then
And then nothing shows for more

Way after way
Consternations stay for a while
You have your happiness, that reckless smile
That flies from the eyes in a slightest little moment

For a day or two
When the night seems to speak
But the words don’t tell all, even secrets
Seem like nonsense
In the fall of the sun

This is my medicine on the ladder
My miracle on a twine
A little save, a funny dive
That walks a bit and says that is life

One take, one shot
A sequence for the cinema-lovers
Who come to watch and end and go
Such pretty words spoken, such dreams for show

Away
Away
Away
Take one more pretension and stay on for something
That disappoints and makes you cry and renders
All your thoughts into tragedies

Laugh your melancholy home
Take the inner child from deep under your skin
Under your bone


Your heart it beats according to your wishes
But where goes faith?
Does hope so bright
Rest over your shoulders
Or inside your mind like a bind that cannot
Break free on its own?

You saw your own resolve
Your own dimensions that shy
From the clarity of the ruthless eyes
That you glance through
That you forget after a while

So rushes by the day the day that day
That was comfort on loan but it wasted away
And one by one and all in all
Suspicions they just sly sauntered away

For all the meaningless promises
That were missed and faked and broken
From all the frightened little girls
Who had asked and said and were tokens

To your lie
To your lie
Every smoking lady passes by
With that gazing shimmer in her eye
And then all the gentle souls they fly
With their broken wings into the dark

The darkness speaks in riddles more
Than fire burns from hunger sorely

Desire rages in its cage
Like tender beasts who cannot see the light

Forward this might this might
Slay the demons I still fight like innocence against the slaughter

As the single watcher runs away to find
His own salvation his own route to escape
And his figure fades away into the hum of the city
The shadows fly they fly
With songs for speech and worried lines
The sham of protection and wanderlust
They unite for a while then dissipate
Into thoughts for truth

If truths do live
And conscience dies
And simple sorrow can save the joy
Of the thinker and the talker
For a dime
Don’t make the lost moves shine
Only the little smallest moments of
Trips to the inner face
Of mountains and moonlight for all
Cheaper thrills base desires that bore

For a few sacred hours before that run away
The luckier side of my eyes
Turned my head for answers
To questions

That saw for distraction
Searching temptations
Only you
