| DISTANT PARENTS Sweetness was there but the breeze of love though felt did not stop my street from becoming crowded Everything will be gone The Earth and warm life There will be a time when the sun will no longer be ablaze But you will disappear much sooner And I will no longer feel that I’m loved forever Both of you should have met the parents who lived inside of me So we could all be together Voices rising out of silence Banging loudly on the gates of resistance I will never be able to say Always in a dream What time is it today? Reality makes me feel sorry I've been wired improperly My sorrow is there for no one to see Everything is gone For no other reason Than ill disconnection Mind of a schizophrenic My heart is in a panic Mind of a schizophrenic My eyes are in tears And my heart is in a panic Strange voices rising out of silence Banging loudly on the gates of resistance © 2007 Jerome Lebel |
