English
“Fighting, apologising, clinging”
I practice prostrating myself before you, and get better at it
“Getting closer, getting closer, then sliding apart
Selling those feelings of defeat”
Among those ordinary words
Is a promise to myself
I’ve found it, I’m tired of it
I throw it away and search again
Even the mosaic I spent so much time making
Will someday crumble and the origin of the world will become clear
Tired of it as I am, I too am one of them
Reaching a conclusion, giving up, a thought occurs
Are artists like this too?
Longing, pretending to be strong, hunting it down
To say “it makes me cry” would be a lie
It’s a vicious cycle
I feed my empty body multi-coloured vitamins
It’s no good supplmenting, it won’t work anymore, I don’t even have a trump card
The distorted bricks that I build up steadily
Crumble, and my true face becomes clear
It doesn’t make me cry
There’s nothing that we must have
“I don’t need love. If I long for it, I run away”
Once I’ve said it, I try to reflect on it
But is it my fault? If even “It’s OK, it’s not” becomes stubbornness
And we end up apart, in the end we’re all different people
Continuing to make things up, do I overanalyse things?
It’s funny, but I want to scream, I want to beg |
