Chairs

And the chairs were silently moving through the room
Low voices chattered
And the eyes were reading the words
Page upon page of books older than them
Even the wood of the tables could tell a thousand more stories
More stories than them all gathered together
No need for words they said
With every silence
With every unspoken word
It was all understood
And we thought we were strong
That we could endure it all
And make it through
Then we could change the world
So wrong we were
So wrong we are
And the chairs still silently moving across the room

Soy

soy como una lágrima perdida en el mar
nadie sabe donde estoy
si con tu boca no pruebas mi sabor
hoy no quiero ser
porque ayer me desperté
en un mundo que estaba del revés
tu ya no eras tu
y yo ya no era yo
dos extraños y una taza de café
eras el silencio en una calle abandonada
yo era como el hielo perdido en la montaña
nadie sabe donde estamos
si nuestras voces se quedan sin palabras
tengo tanto que decir
pero nada que explicar
soy las palabras en el diario
que terminan en el fuego
para calentar tus manos
hoy no quiero ser
porque mañana aún estaré
en un mundo que sigue del revés
tu no serás tu
yo no seré yo
dos nombres sin rostros
caminando entre la gente

To see you

I wanna see you
hiding behind trees
the wind slowly pacing
while you whisper your sweet words
and I wait for them to reach me
while I wait in the rain
I wanna see you
coming towards me
while I'm holding my breath
and your hand holds my hand
I wanna see you
so close
so I can kiss you

Colors

I'm all shades of gray
The colors are gone
They've faded away
No feelings left
Nothing left
But gray, gray, gray...

Clocks

I could sleep the whole day
And I wouldn't mind
I could sleep all my life
And I still wouldn't mind
Just sleep it through
This day
I would like to be still for a while
No more pain or joy
I would like not to feel for some time
Not love, not hate
Just me and the days,
the hours, the minutes and seconds
The moments and nothingness
Just me and my heart
Singing to me, in rhythms
Its own pace, my pace
Calmly repeating itself
Me and my dreams,
The thoughts and words in my head
Peacefully playing its tune
To me
I could sleep the whole day today
And the days afer this day
But I would be missing so much
So I'll take a nap
And wake up just in time
