somehow

somehow
when I talk to her
she likes to
let her hair down
like the curtain
of the night
and then I smile
and then she laughs
and in that moment
everything's alright.
somehow
when I talk to her
she seduces the living soul
out of me
yes, even when I talk
she does that
easily
she bites her lip
to dispute my concentration
and I lose the track of thoughts
after that manipulation.
somehow
when I talk to her
she dictates the notes
secretly creating
the memory
in this song
and I think she knows
all along, oh yes
I think she knows
that somehow
we're both guilty
of these unraveled
pleasures
and the mischievous
thoughts.

quilty

no one is to blame.
culprits,
they are a relative phenomena.
they appear obsessed
with innocence and thoughts
that they are all just victims
of naive propaganda
by the corrupt consciousness.

and they're not guilty,
although sometimes I believe
I knew how to think quite
the opposite;

they are.

that insignificant indifference
towards them
makes me guilty as well.

now I understand;
I have supported all of the lucid ideas
by staging moral scorn
towards social norms;
I'm guilty.

cynicism, hypocritical narcissism
are only a part of
the rotten human mind
for which I would point out
all of the non-existent values
if I'm not of sound mind.
luckily, I am
so I will not.

clearly - in the environment
with no witnesses
we're all
guilty.

therefore,
I give up.

the feeling is right

she's quite something, you know.

we never really understood

each other

that well before. I know that now.

but what we have today

is way beyond

understanding.

we have respect. we learned.

we accepted each other

for who we are

and we know we're not perfect.

and so we moved on from there.

with the new found freedom we started

to love our friendship again.

and that friendship is bringing us closer.

weird... we needed to move away

from each other

to get

closer

to each other.

life can be

goddamn ironic sometimes,

you get really surprised.

we've gone full circle.

we got our relationship

reincarnated.

we've beaten the odds.

we will be

ok.
