Life

Life, my life
Look what I did
I left the sweetest slice
Of life
On the table of men
With empty lives
But, life, there
Who knows, I was happy

Life, my life
Look what I did
I poured out my life
In the corners, in the sink
In the house of men
With wasted lives
But, life, there
Who knows, I was happy

Light, I want light
I know that beyond the curtains
There are blue stages
And endless curtains
With stages behind
Rip out, life
Swells, vein
And pulses, pulses, pulses,
Pulses, pulse more
More, I want more
Even if all the boats
Return to the dock
May the coastal lighthouses
Send me signals
Rip out, life
Swells, sail
Take me, take me far
Far, take me further

Life, my life
Look what I did
I touched the wound
In the nerves, in the wires
In the eyes of men
With dark eyes
But, life, there
I know I was happy
