Enter Shikari / Constellations.

 

Packing the last few shirts into a bloated suitcase

The last glimpse of comfort and the ticking clock face 

I swear those hands move faster every day 

I'm more confused thanever but I don't beg or pray 'cause the 

Sparkling light from the morning sun 

Is all we should need to feel one. 

 

I reach the station with just minutes to spare, 

Glance at my watch, time's going faster these days I swear, 

Eyes focus up now to the train time table board 

There's only two platforms to be explored, 

And it's then that I admit it to my self 

 

That I am lost, so lost 

But you're the constellations 

That guide me 

There's a train at 12, destination disaster. 

It's running on time as time runs faster 

On platform two it's destination sustainability 

It's delayed though it was suppose to arrive at 11:50. 

Platform one it says stand behind the yellow line 

But I sit on the platform edge and just gaze at the time. 

 

My mind wanders back to our oblivious existence 

I'm all choked up now with the threat of distance 

As the train bound for disaster chokes up to the station, 

I don't board it cause I decide that it's the wrong destination, 

But the train bound for sustainability is nowhere to be seen 

 

And I'm lost, so lost 

Where are the constellations 

That guide me? 

 

And then I realize that 

We need to use our own two feet to walk these tracks, 

And we have to squad up and we have to watch each others backs, 

When forgiveness is our torch and imagination our sword 

Well I'll tie the ropes of hate and slash open the minds of the bored 

And we'll start a world so equal and free 

Every inch of this earth is yours all the land and all the sea 

Imagine no restrictions but the climate and the weather 

Then we can explore space together 

Forever 

 

And I'm lost, so lost 

Where are the constellations 

 

And I'm lost, so lost 

You are the constellation 

 

Another Sad Song (LTA)

"Flashback to 1999,
It's the summer, Not a cloud in the sky.

Present day, Things have changed,
Summer's over
And it rains here every day.
Don't cry,
We all make mistakes from time to time.
Unfortunately, for me,
Being me was mine."

I The Mighty - Karma Keepers

Einfach weil ich den Song mag und weil's Spaß gemacht hat mich so auf's Wochenende einzustimmen...

We started riots in the streets just so you could point the finger. We set fire to these cities just so we could watch them burn and light our way. You can call us hell, call us what you will, just don't you ever call us by our names.

We are you sisters, your brothers, your sons, the whole damn brigade. And we won't stop till every citizen, they get what they deserve. So be kind to your elders and watch your words. Im callin' it quits just as soon as we return, but for now I'm just a patriot at work. 

 So we sing "oh you poor, poor soul. I've been sent here to bring you home. My queen, she brews a powerful stew and we need just one piece of you."
