Late Night  Thoughts

 

1: „You know the feeling you get

When you just lay in your bed

Stare at your ceiling

Thinking bout life and its meaning

Realizing that nothing will last

Future, Present and Past

None of them matters

Cause nothings forever

 

2: “So if life doesn’t matter

Then death doesn´t matter”

 

1: “yeah but guess what´s better?”

 

2:”Mhh… a life full of sorrow

With no hope for tomorrow

Or dying in peace”

 

1:” Oh please

Life isn´t that bad”

 

2:”Yeah as long as I´m in bed”

 

1:”Wow very funny; what I wanted to say

Is you have to look start looking away

From everything bad”

 

2:”small problem: Everything´s bad!”

 

1:”Oh come on now you´re just lying

Cause there´s no denying

That life got its beauty”

 

2:”Life got its beauty?

Damn I really wanna see the life you see”

 

1: “You can! Just open your eyes and look around

Or use your ears and listen to its sounds”

 

...

2: “Oh you mean the “Sound of Silence”?

Cause all I see is “Darkness, old friend”

So try to convince me again”

 

1: “I will. Because I´m right!

Life is not only black and not only white”

 

2:”Yeah… sometimes it´s Grey”

 

1:”Argh That’s not what I wanted to say!”

 

2:”Oh sorry for interrupting” ;)

 

1:”Why so mean? I´m just tryna teach you something!

Stop glorifying Death

And live your life to its best

So you´ll have no regrets

When it comes to your Death”

 

2:”Oh my life is full of regret

Full of regret for every tear I shed”

 

1: “Why did you cry?”

 

2:” Well… Living can hurt

Sometimes it´s the whole world

Sometimes it´s only one word

That breaks your heart

And makes you fall apart”

 

1: Oh… I know that´s hard

But that´s just a part

Of living”

 

2:”That´s just a part of living!?

How can falling apart while living

Be part of living!?

You have to be kidding!”

 

1:” No I´m not kidding

Living means up and living means down

Living means smile and living means frown

A bad past and an even worse present

Don’t mean your future won´t be pleasant

 

2:”Too bad I live present”

 

1: “No you live in the past

Cause keep looking back

But the time won´t come back

So Stop being sad

And have fun instead!”

 

2: “Easier said than done

Cause I forgot what´s Fun”

 

1: “ HOW do you forget what´s fun!?”

 

2: “ Well, I was busy with my run”

 

1:” Ehhh… what kind of run??”

 

2:” I mean running away from my problems

Because I couldn´t solve them”

 

1:” God damn it you stupid

You´ve got a brain so use it

If you can´t find a solution alone

Go to the place where you feel at home”

 

2:”Maybe they´ll think I´m crazy”

 

1:” They won´t think you´re insane

Cause they can feel you´re in pain!”
