| when i was small
i was how lovely i looked
then later when i grew
how good i can memorize books
then when i grow older
how good my girlfriend looks
then when i got even older
the name of my college
then i aged a little again
and i became my job title
and where i live
and how much i make
tried to pull a few tricks
tried to play by the rules
not like any of us has got to choose
and i grew older
and realized i didn't grow a bit
i look into my reflection
and before my eyes stood
an innocent kid
standing in front of a lake
thinking
i've wasted my life.

| we write songs
we put our bandannas on
we say, "we'll fight hard
and we'll fight long"
we sing and dance
it was present tense
we're all against war
but the truth is
we'll just get rolled up
in the mist of it all
we must fight
for existence
we'll betray our souls
sustaining life
we'll be fighting colleagues
but neither of you will feel sorry
we'll be at wars with our families
out of green, out of envy
we are at an age
when we're still allowed to give praises
befriend people, and show our real faces
but on us all cast a spell
22 years gone by and you can tell
it's called time, my mind is bounded
every night when the clock chimes
another 10 years gone
what's left of you is less than a form
what we like, what we choose
all manipulated, all influenced
what opinions somebody got
just how he's socialized, nothing short
we'll be at war
with money and power
when we have it
we'll defend it for the youngers
of course, then they will want nothing with it
they will sing and dance
they will write songs
they will protest, but they will be at war
sooner or later, i can see it
so to me it's not grotesque
anymore
it's a folklore
of the human race
have a little taste
savor of lost dreams and hate
savor of the apple that adam ate.

| Xanga and Facebook are now linked up. nice move.

| half technology
hard policy
don't fall
don't flow with the fallacies
choose the right path
do the right math
get your mind straight
all love no hate
if you want to make it
you've got to kick it
make a plan and stick to it
even if you're sick, do it
cuz you're the one who chose
this path that you would go
you'll face the high and lows
but that'd add color to your soul
see things from across
connecting all your dots
at times you'll feel you're lost
don't know why you fought
what's the purpose of it all?
after all?
but you're driven
by each breathe your breath
each drop of blood you've bleed

| i'm longing for those lips,
soft and tender and sweet,
i want to touch your skin,
want to taste your every inch,
can't get you out of my head,
girl you know i want you so bad,
will you let me brush your hair
while our eyes passionately stares
i want to hold you in my arms
lord knows i can't fight your charms
i want to kiss the back of your neck
beauty that no man can neglect
everywhere i can see your face
there's a scent in the air i can taste
let's not waste any more time
cuz girl you know i want you to be mine.
