lyrics

Mad and Child

(You)

Knights, Kings and Queens
Home hovels of my privacy
They assume possession
Of my desire to matter
….to get your attention

Walking down the harbour
Strange thoughts follow me
Ice crowds dwell my time
And you exist
Just because I sing of them

Let’s just play another match
My poetry is not dried-up
I just need to be able to stop
My singing
My crazy run
I’m not what I haven’t …

Among these oil flames
Wet reflections from the street
Steam engine chokes
My suffocated cries
My suffocated cries

I really don’t remember
To have seen
The colours of a winter evening
Don’t remember when
I last saw them
Without the need to freeze them in my rhymes
I don’t remember when I breathed the grassland
Just to retrieve the kernel of my soul
I don’t remember if I breathed the dusk
Standing Freedom at my side

Doesn’t exist a place where you die?
And where I dance at the Moonlight
Mad and child?
I dance mad and child
