Agitated

You are annoying the living daylight out of me
claiming my every way in life
clearly trying to own all that breaths me
persistent and arrogate in a form
no one ever managed to be

the interrogating questions speak
nothing but doubt from your own mouth
showing the incapability and ignorance
keeping your unconfident self-being together

fed up, sick and tired with the mind games
practised out as if I were an experiment
showing the cracks of a failed outcome
where your numbers did not add up in the end
and the equation solved itself

all that I feel left to say
is not even a goodbye or farewell
however pine you will not parish
under your own blindness for the shed of light
one once will cast in your inferno

Losbreken van Huis

het gevoel van stilte
drukt een stempel
als aankondiging van de storm
die vast land raakt
door gaat razen
totdat niets meer recht staat
steen voor steen
tegen de vlakte geslagen

woorden penetreren
tot aan het trommelvlies
doorscheuren de weke delen
een destructieve golf
van overbodig vocabulaire

afstotend al dat lief had
gevoelens van een
losgebroken navelstreng
waaraan noodlottig
vastgegrepen wordt

het eigen leven
dient verplaatst te worden
meenemend fundamenten
dat het huis gescheurd
achter zal laten

in een staat
van krampachtigheid
terugblikkend naar tijden
waarin wind geen plaats vond
voorspelt een toekomst
zuchteloos
als stilte voor de storm

This old love

Heard an amazing song on the radio, which is now like stuck in my mind. Just need to share it!



We're movin' on
Looking for direction
We've covered much ground
Thinking back to innocence
I can no longer connect
I don' t have a heart left to throw around

Oh, and time moves on like a train
That disappears into the night sky
Yeah, I still get a sad feeling inside
to see the red tail lights wave goodbye

We'll grow old together
We'll grow old together
And this love will never
This old love will never die

Well money slips into your hands
And then slips out like it was sand
And those shoes that you could never seem to fill
I've chased so much and lost my way
Maybe a face for every day
That so casually slipped me by

Morning comes
Sometimes with a smile
Sometimes with a frown
Yeah so I never want to worry
If you're gonna stay around

So let's grow old together
Baby you and I will
We'll grow old together
And this love will never
This old love will never die

Yes, yeah we're movin' on
Movin' right along
