Today
I carry the marks of my time on my body
My despair, life in a moment
The pit, the hunger, the flower, the end of the world

Today
I have distorted images in my eyes
Colors, journeys, unfamiliar hands
Bringing the moon, the street to my hands

But today,
My weakened and empty hands
Search naked for the moons, for the streets
In the loneliness of cold nights for you

Today
Fearless men land in the future
I’m scared, I wake up and look for you
My dark room is lifeless like death

Today
Men of steel wait on science
I despair and embrace your absence
Which is all I have left, living on my luck

Luck
I didn’t want youth lost like this
I didn’t want to walk dying through life
I didn’t want to love like I loved you.
