Life isnt about finding yourself, its about creating yourself:)

Why talk when you can sing? Why walk when you can dance?


well, love is love
but hate ain’t hate
time is fleeting
and fate is fate
keep on living
you will see
nothing is
quite meant to be

don’t expect
and don’t regret
make the best
and don’t forget
keep on living
you will see
there’s no hurt
that can’t be redeemed

fantastic visions
in which i’m drowned
deafening noise
without a sound
i don’t predict
and i don’t look back
cause i’m singing on
a skipping track

some things burn
and some things sting
but nothing cuts
like what i’ve seen
sliced me deep
and i did it too
it seems like life’s
to hard to do

life’s a game
and i’m falling behind
drought of imagination
famine of mind
keep on living
you will see
there’s not that much
to you and me





everyone dies
and we all live thru it
everything’s lies
and thats how we do it
don’t be a coward
death’s on the rise
live every minute
until your demise

everyone’s broken
everyone cries
everyone needs
someone to wipe their eyes
so if a blade
can do the trick
so be it, i say
cut to the wick

and may we burn
so we don’t freeze
bright flames come
without much ease
keep on living
you will see
nothing’s ever
worth the dream

don’t look behind you
don’t plan ahead
cause now’s worth too much
and soon you’ll be dead
nothing more priceless
than a moment in time
and losing one moment
is naught but a crime

they dare to be helpless
they dare to please
they dare to give in
to cravings with ease
someone ought to tell them
they’re going home soon
but with every grain of sand
they throw out a fortune





whats holding you up?
the smile of a lover?
and they are held up
by the smile of another
by now i have learned
you can’t give your all
until you know
you’re willing to fall

the best thing we know of
is real close to magic
but all made of pain
and always ends tragic
keep on living
you will see
love isn’t really
a mystery

childish games
off which we thrive
these are the things
that keep us alive
as soon as we’ve aged
we’ve died just a little
and running from death
we live for the riddle

everyone dies
and we all live thru it
everything’s lies
and thats how we do it
find the silver lining
and make yourself a chain
and wear it every day
for in love and life you reign

well, love is love
but hate ain’t hate
time is fleeting
and fate is fate
keep on living
you will see
nothing is
quite meant to be
