May it be different

in song •  8 years ago  (edited)

As I walk on the dusty street

The noise of work catches my attention

As I breathe the sick air, I see wrecks of former feet

The erection of a new attraction

Should the production never end.

As I stand in the metro

They look at me like a clown, an entertainment

As I sit next to an old man's sorrow

I understand that life doesn't owe him anymore paiement

May the judgements never stop.

As I fly away from my old life

Spit it loudly, grab a forbidden fruit

As I land on a real knife

The red flavour never tasted that good

Let the bounds be a burden.

As I swim in my busy thoughts

A foot on my head, I drown, quickly

As I dig in my heart

A hand at sight, I try, vainly

Please, let it be different.


For my second post, I came up with the concept of "soundwriting", which consists in linking text with a sound that I recorded at some point in my life. I don't really know how to integrate Soundcloud with the Markdown system, I hope it works :) This sound was recorded during my stay in Shanghai, in front of the accomodation building of my university. The wind is escorting the sound of construction and the work in progress. I will try to improve the quality of those sounds with time!

Take care, Musicalligraphy.
