Bubbles



I had posted the lyrics for this japanese song before. Just found the video on YouTube. Lyrics here:


The sea's so wide
You can't see anything.

The waves build up slowly, then break.

There are little bubbles everywhere.

They're born, and
shine sparkling in the sun.

They move about slowly,
floating and sinking.

They kiss, become one,
and then they float apart.

They slowly grow, then they burst...
...and sink back into the sea.

Somehow...
Somehow...
They are just like us.


Lyrics (translated) from title song of Japanese movie Visitor Q

the gift

a special day it is today
and here I am, empty handed, nothing to say

swear, I thought of many a gift
confounded I was, coz none would fit

and then it dawned, the ideal present
                 no other comes close, as much as I try
your woes of aplenty, hope this will erase
                 I give you your gift as I wave goodbye

Rhetoric

And who's the fool who wears the crown
Is it the fearless idiot facing the crowd?
Climbing his own way

And if all roads led to Rome
Is the long road the wrong road
'Coz life is too short?

And if no one ever spoke a word
Is the scream silent or the silence loud?
All mouths stitched in time

But the scream is silent
And the silence loud
The dance is a pirouette
Spinning round and round

A fiery dream consumes me
A candle awakens me
A wind blows through me
A tomb awaits me
