Little Things That Matter

Somewhere in the world another butterfly starts another hurricane
A smiling kid enjoys the beating echo of his little drum’s membrane
While shining stars are putting up a fight for their precious hall of fame
And elephants are watching down to ashen mice from their higher plane

Somewhere in the world a cute young girl is dressing up her impassive doll
An older man enjoys a song and blows all of his candles blessing god
While angry men in sturdy chairs are screaming, fighting for the map's control
And bulls are raging, running for annoying flags painted with victims’ blood

Somewhere in the world the calm hand of an artist paints his naked muse
A father helps his son to finish up the tree house that he will start to use
While wealthy personalities all think they are eccentric for abuse
And faces open wide at tons of weapons from which they have to choose

Somewhere in the world a man screams out his soul while jumping from a peak
A boy is lost between all sorts of ice-cream from which he has to pick
While women starve themselves thinking that beauties are always thin not thick
And people who believe that they are smart are never taking time to think

Don't Fear The Cat

To me it seems this cat is thick
My leg went numb and starts to sting
My head performs a random trick
And all my blood boils in a bit

Can I afford to care for her?
And lose myself into her fur?
Or listen how she meows and purr?
Have I the strength to care for her?

I see the claws, I see the teeth
I see the missing puzzle piece
And if there is a threatening list
Is shorter than those better things

But will she think I’m just a mouse?
What will she think about my past?
Will she enjoy the greenest grass?
Or climb a tree and watch me pass?

Waiting For The 10:09

This is for the miss
Who was cleaning the train station
After lucky filthy pigs
You didn’t had a head start
And you deserve a lot much better
But you have to live like this
I love you miss
Forget those pigs
I love you miss
Forgive those pigs

And I can tell you this
In every language of the world
You’d understand
But would those pigs?
And you deserve a lot much better
But you have to live like this
I love you miss
Forget those pigs
I love you miss
Forgive those pigs

And I can even cipher this
In every secret hidden code
Your sidekick would translate it
But would those pigs?
He too deserves a lot much better
But he has to live like this
He loves you miss
Forget those pigs
He loves you miss
Forgive those pigs

"Maybe The Best Of Things"

Two dices are rolling and rolling in your hand
Dream only at nothing and nothing waits at the end
Suppress your feelings and you won't feel a thing
Put water on fire, you will sure extinguish it

My name means nothing more than it should
Your eyes believe but your brain stops the mood
Reach for my hand, I cannot promise I’m good
But I can prove myself and I promise I would

Sometimes it's better to turn your head in a way
That permits you to hear what others can say
Don’t open your mouth to deny every pray
The smallest sun can begin the longest day

Fly to the clouds and clean your hands in their water
The birds can help you to train your wings proper
You can’t do a thing if you don’t even bother
Just open your eyes and look over the border

For Whom Might See

Two little greens
Like natural machines
Like moistly leaves
Like flowers born in spring

Two little deeps
Like honey made by bees
Like ocean trips
Like something bittersweet

Two little charms
Like furry animals
Like water on my arms
Like quiet car alarms

Two little stones
Like precious anecdotes
Like walking in reverse
Like temples for the moles

Spiders

All the monsters are misunderstood
They don’t ever want to be so rude
In the deepest corner of their hearts
You can see the absence of love

Tall and mean, two eyes glowing red
Stronger arms than you will ever have
But what does this all have to do
With the fact that they are not approved

Twists of fate always seem to prove
They don’t turn out to be so good
But the leaves, when the year falls
Leave trees naked for better not for worse

Climb a ladder to the very top
Then slide down till you hit the ground
Analyze these actions in your mind
What is simple, to climb or to slide?

The Fragile

Life is nothing but a fly
Hanging from the spider’s web
It could brake and you could fall
Or he could come and eat you whole

Life is nothing but a fire
Reaching towards the sky
It could rain and put you out
Or you could burn till the last log

Life is nothing but a dream
Taking you astray
You could wake and it could end
Or sleep until the dream is dead

Life is nothing but a... life
Carrying the weight
You could die by accident
Or when it’s written in your fate

Unnatural Solutions, Or How To Choose Wrong

Nature brought beauty while mankind brought laws
And everything after was altered by those
If nature is prey then we have big jaws
We bite and we chew, we scratch with them claws
We feel the hunger so we have to eat
We never get tired, we never need sleep
This is a rampage that we’ll never heed
Starting gun went off, finish line was missed

Nature brought order while mankind brought goals
They all live their lives according to those
They search for answers, meaning and purpose
Thinking simplicity’s a terrible curse
Isn’t life granted just to be lived?
Why looking farther and not at our feet?
But this is a thought that we’ll never think
We dream to aspire towards infinite

Nature brought color while mankind brought thrones
They all fight their way to catch one of those
Stepping on people as if they were stones
Trying their best in the worst set of tones
So black is the color they decided to pick
To hide every each other that makes them look weak
And the mist of life is as white as it’s thick
We could never translate the meaning of it

Nature brought beings while mankind brought stones
They plant all the lands with many of those
A life is translated in two simple years
And what’s in between forgotten and cleared
In history men found new ways to complete
The graveyards with other men that they’ve killed
They’ve used their energy towards their defeat
Instead of trying to find new ways to live

Promenade

And we can sleep awhile
Outstretched on the sand
And you can rest you hair
On my hospitable hand

And we can dream awhile
So we can share adventure
On a faraway island
In search for a treasure

The ocean and the wind
The seagulls in the air
They all can form a band
And sing to our care

The food we’ll have with us
Will let us stay for days
We’ll never find a thing
Standing in our ways

Four By Four

There’s a witch in my room
And she flies on her broom
And I can’t save my head from her spells

And I run, and I run
But she comes all around
On my trails and her laughs made me fell

It’s a move I can’t keep
And I’m starting to trip
Very soon you will find me on the floor

And I’ll stay like baby
And I’ll wonder if maybe
I'll have strength to reach for the door

But you’ll come, save my head
Offering me your hand
I will take it anytime, anyhow

And you’ll send me a smile
Taking me on an isle
Where the witch cannot come hunt me down

Today

If you were a sin, I’d be a sinner
And if you were a bet, I’d be a winner
There is no need for nothing bigger

If you were a claw, I’d be the pray
And if you were a vase, I’d be the clay
I’d be more fond of you with every day

If you were a screamer, I’d be your yell
And if you were a break, I’d be the bell
I’d never need to hear another fairytale

If you were a pond, I’d be a fish
And if you were a meal, I’d be a dish
I’d need no falling star to make a wish

Mockery To A Certain Type Of People

Flying in my universe
In my suit and classy shoes
I am the ruler of the herd
I’m the one who brings the news

Sleeping in my infant bed
Worn out like a fishing line
I am the brick above your head
I’m the one who slows the time

Eating all my fingernails
Followed by a stupid ghost
I am the evil on your trails
I’m the one who dares to cross

Thinking at my TV set
And how to buy more fat and drinks
I am smarter than the rest
I’m the one who sees the tricks

Resting on my lonely chair
Just me and my memory
I am the holder of your air
I’m the one with company

Counting sheep when I’m asleep
Having more with every night
I am rich and I am a creep
I’m the one who gives the right

...

And when you say I am the weak
I promise I don’t understand
You don’t have stones
You don’t have sticks
There’s just the pleasure to pretend
So in your mind you are the best
Just like the other people there
They are the few
They’re not the rest
Just kings of nothing everywhere

Just grab yourself from inside out
Transform the “with” into “without”
That static picture on the wall
Is just a picture, not a mirror
The king you dream is far away
Trapped in the realm of memory
Just grab yourself from inside out
You’ll find a different you, no doubt
