i got tan
out of my den
play in the sand
i got tan again
there’s the sun
having fun
in this land
it is his favorite son
rainbow many of colors
but none seems to fit with mine
they told you to be more white
in this colorful world
and i love chocolate to the skin
not yours radiant pink
or that porcelain face look
like you wish
let’s write a song about the rain today
the sun’s gone out the sky fade into gray
and i’m all alone in this room anyway
there’s nothing left for me to say
the flash makes you blink thunder makes you shrink
wind chills the brain but your heart is on fire
so here i am in the dark corner of this room
giving all my heart in full bloom
there’s something in the air can you feel it?
a faint signal far away one heartbeat
or maybe my frequency finally fit
between droplets of water
racing among the lightning
creeping inside this cold soul
a spark one little warm flame
it’s that song about the rain you do know
the one you put up as a one man show
i’ll be watching when you play the banjo
here when it’s raining and i’m all alone
and i’m all alone when it rain
i met Venus this morning
a graceful different kind of crescent
with Spica on her ring
radiant in the pink sky
between the giant water bears
a plump remnant of grey clouds
curled in and out
swimming in the pink sky
it is when the night walker met the day dreamer
it is when the light finally touch the dark
it is when the tune seeps through this cracked heart
it is when i found the key to make time stop
i met you in my dream
that prince charming trade mark you bring
you are the star among the stars
the brightest of them all
but i am just a pebble
carved in this ocean of people
another grey in monochrome world
a small round plain pebble
this is the day when you shout “the storm’s coming, Dorothy!”
this is the day when you should start running and keep it going
this is the day when you wish the rain wash away your tears
this is the day when wise words slaps you in the face
this is the day when the filament get electrified
this is the day when you’re in love, and got sick of it
this is the day when it all start and then simply stop
i used to walk under the bending trees
they stretch the branches and reaching out to me
shaking up the leaves a bit and send a gentle quiver
to the house sparrow that won’t sit still
i am actually good
a year before i met you
and it’s funny that now
i miss you no more
i am actually good
a year before i met you
remembering that i can
lived it beautifully without you
the sun he sneaks behind my back
the dappled carpet beneath my feet
he laughs at me while we’re playing hide and seek
don’t go too fast and sway with the shadow
i am actually good
a year before i met you
and it’s funny that now
i miss you no more
i am actually good
a year before i met you
remembering that i can
lived it beautifully without you
i wear no make up
it’s just me with my t-shirt
and my voice is like a child
it makes me stay young
and if you think i dance like a robot
well it’s just me letting it all out
it’s just me being me
it’s just me being me
life goes on
after the 22nd
some still hurt and die in vain
while others sit comfort licking their sugar cane
there’s no me
or you that can stop this thing
our planet earth still growing
it’s powerful and extreme and she won’t give in
and she slams
without warning her face keeps changing
yes sometimes the truth does kills
there is no easy way to bypass a broken heart
when fate knocks
and the only thing to do
is to find a little bravery
inside of me and you and together we can
my hands are small
little fingers all in all
but i know there’s so much more
even though it’s just a small favor
my hands are small
little fingers all in all
and you can’t take that away from me
though all i can do is just a small favor
