JOB
5 o’clock get on up,
Hit the shower, water power,
Get a cup of tea and toast
In the car, travel far,
Traffic jam, here I am,
That’s what I hate the most
And when I just keep on going
See all the stuff I have to do
And then the water’s overflowing
And it’s overflowing you…
Turning on the pc,
get yourself a cup of tea,
Checking out the mail and go
Meeting and you’re running late,
All the stuff that cannot wait,
Energy is running low..
Well I’m moving mountains
But I long for yesterday
When they were
so happy to have me
And told me so along the way
Work untill the end of day,
Lock up and go away
A headache is hunting you
Getting home at nightfall
Is there any use at all
in living like I do?
And when the day is over
Hardly anything works at all
And the only solution
is going back
to where you started from..

TRUST
One day you put your trust in me
But now it seems to me
you’re not so sure
And that’s the point for me you see
And I really don’t
wanna be with you anymore
And now you tell me
that you need me
And you cannot cope
without me anymore
But if you must you will so easily
betray my trust…
How come?
You gave your word
But it doesn’t seem
to mean that much to you
And more than anything
I was hurt
Because I thought
that your sincerity was true
You made a promise and took it back
And it makes you look
like a coward and a fake
And all it takes to reconnect
Are the amends
that you are never gonna make
100 YEARS
I slept a hundred years
In a castle in the dark
Too tired to notice
The blood running
out of my veins…
And just as I found the key
Somebody opened up
the door
It was as if the Lord said:
“Don’t waste your
power anymore”
I lost the power
I lost the reason to believe
I lost the will to go ahead
But now the sun is shining
in my mind again
Somewhere on the way
I felt my face was
wet with tears
No matter what they pay
It’s not worth
losing a hundred years
I lost the power
I lost the capacity to see
I lost the ability to sleep
But now the wind is blowing
through my hair again
I slept a hundred years
I didn’t see the sun
& as my skin turned pale
I only counted battles won
MY OLD STREET
I really like the neighborhood
The people and the trees
I never once was homesick
Hardly a thing I miss
It is odd how you get used to
living in a crowded place
You never seem to notice
until you find a bigger space
Away from my old street
I wasn't feeling healthy
I couldn't quite get up
And everything I tried to lift
eventually seemed to drop
Now I know you will tell me
I was feeling left behind
But a simple change of scenery
Was all it took to shine!
Away from my old street
Was it only half a year ago
I felt that I was stuck?
As I pass my old street
I cannot believe my luck
It's a vague streak of pity
I feel for those left behind
Never regretted leaving home
Though I was not sure
of what I'd find
I wake up feeling happy
The band I'm now playing in
Well even if the road is rough
We travel with a grin
It's the way they're
treating people
that makes it hard for you
Makes you feel you're
losing faith
no matter what you do
Oh back in my old street
