JUST A FARAWAY MEMORY
OJO 2004

I really was an A student
but I refused to accept
the normal way to build a good life
so I chose to go my own way
ending my future
with a record in skipping school
and an attitude of bending every rule
so I could create a master mind life
built upon out-lived lies
found in the back of my disorientated mind
I was a bandit
with a very loyal gang
and we reached every top we decided to visit
but we were blind to the simple fact
that a kind of life like ours
would bring us emotionally down to the bottom
and with a never expire date contract
on our young heads

It was not my life
it was a fake dream
and it turned me into a machine
with every feeling shut off
so I could please my growing greed

It is this way my unknown friend
not that way
but if you wont listen
go your own self-destructive way
and see if you can manage to escape somehow
from the pain sorrow and the loss of your good friends
when you discover the truth
it will be much too late
to bring anything back to normal shape
and so there will come a very hard time
when you only can regret that you acted so foolish
but it wont help you at all
when you are surrounded by a concrete wall

Indestructible love is what I feel
but I have no one to share it with anymore
since my only true love went away
and left me to stay in a broken dream
where I can only pray that it all will pass in time
so I once again can become alive
