lyrics
Wild seas shaking my inner world
as a black storm screaming in my heart.
New leafs grow red from my own sincerity,
a child is angry, and that child is me,
cause
the heart moves
from love, sharing love,
and from joy sharing joy,
and growing hate to those
who didn't accept you.
When words build sistematic structures that will
control spontaneus living
you'll end enslaved by all categories that
were made, and your heart will be alone,
again,
surrounded by words...
and all people's laughing...
you're fucking alone,
alone...
I find a cage in every word, a lie in every name
that pretends to be saying what lives inside me,
because I am every tree, every animal I live,
every person I loved, and I wont say sorry,
for my heart's my only truth, and it's my only home,
if I rejected myself I'd not even be alone,
I would simply just be dead, I would simply just be fear,
I just wondered to myself,
and I decide to live.
Blackbird, I'm singing to myself, don't be confused.
Black is my inner truth I sing.
It's not about theories or thoughts I would refuse,
it's all about how I feel.
Black wings
let's fly away,
there's no need to speak,
I will find my way inside me.
Respect, is that what we're looking for?
Respect, is that what you search?
Is hate the fire that will make respect emerge?
Or is hate a goal in itself?
No, I won't play this game,
no, I won't play this game,
I know
you feel better that way,
well I wish you the best,
I will fly away,
away...
'Cause I find a cage in every word, a lie in every name
that pretends to be saying what lives inside me,
because I am every tree, every animal I live,
every person I loved, and I wont say sorry,
for my heart's my only truth, and it's my only home,
if I rejected myself I'd not even be alone,
I would simply just be dead, I would simply just be fear,
I just wondered to myself,
and I decide to live,
and I decide to live!
and I decide to live!
...I decide to leave.
