BALLOONS AND STONES

6.3.2001

 

 

You are a stone dragging me back,

You are a weight pulling me down,

I'm a balloon wanting to fly,

And you, my dear, you are my brake.

 

You only gain, give nothing in change

And I am weak to go on like this

I'd give all my love, yes, I can say

Paradox. Your mind's shut to feel my kiss.

 

I have a feeling which is quite sad

You are the one with who I could fly

But you say "Pity, we've met to early,

I simply cannot see your value yet."

 

Though we've been a couple sharing

Many hours of our lives

I still see those barriers helping you

From intimacy to come between us

 

Finding way to avoid fears and mistakes

Which are the only way to develop you

Yep, you hardly tried to share

The inside of you, open up, not to be a fake

 

I can no longer go on

Giving all I can

Hearing love from you

But feeling not its flame

 

Realising hopelessly

Emotion's become a routine

Obligation, commitment

You've got stuck away from me

 

To he honest I don't know

Why you hadn't quit, I did

Is better to kid yourself or

Face the truth and get a hit?

 

Little problem which is here

Is surely in your heart

You unwilling to change a thing

Are lazy even simply try

 

But I can tell you all I am

If you do like it like this

You are free to feel this way just

make it clear in time, oh please

 

If you're happier without me

Well, that's what you want

I thought I could set you free

Now I see I was wrong

 

I need an engine driving me ahead

I need a seeker looking for new things

I don't need a stone pulling me to drown

I need the best one among all the kings.

 

I hoped it would be you...
