LA – NY Dreaming

1

Little city is sleepingNo more lights anywhereOn the edge you were sittingSaying life is unfairThe lights are offThe music is onFlowers in my handsThey make me feel fabulousHigh tea in the afternoonCoffee in the eveningTrying to make something goodTrying to experience my feelingsThis feeling is named emptyWhich means this city isJust nothing but a liesWhere we are dieFive minutes of nothingJust a numerous of empty wordsTrying to keep goingKeeping, keeping and keeping, holding swordsIn my handsReading Brodsky and Nabokov,Singing Jopling and Cobain,The things I’m trying to understandAnd to become the biggest fan of…Give me camera and 00’sGive me drugs and 90’sGive me music and 80’sGive me nothing and 70’s

Look into my eyes, lookJust take it and seeJust takeAnd seeDon’t pay attention to meWho should I be?Just your neighborBehind the closed doorsLook at the clocksLate? Ok.Door opensAnd you can’t seeThis is the endWho should I be?What shall I do?Or maybe you’re in love with me too?

Sirens are screaming so loudI can hear it all aroundWhat goes up must come downWhatever it takes, it doesn’t matter nowBlue lights lightning so brightNeon lights are gonna shineThis night was made for the fightRoad was owned by me tonightDark Horse is freeIt counts to threeThere’s no trouble to meThat’s what I’m gonna beThe other side of meWanna be freeI’m shining brighterCause it’s a fighterAnd when you’re gone tonightI was waiting all nightWaiting for you all aloneThat’s when there were things I toldSirens are screaming so loudThere are many things I’ve learned aboutNow I’ve learned howI was easy when I foundThat I’m more free nowCause what goes up must come down

Well, I thought I’ll dieBut there was a fireAnd if I ever thought there’s no hopeI was mistaken while taking the ropeNow it’s all just differentAfter all the things we didNow it’s all just crystal clearFor me that I have no fearI feel this windIt brings me to the summerThe summer with the ringWhich mentally on my fingerFelling this pretty music on my skinAnd now it’s all crystal clearThat we’re meant to be togetherAfter the day we met and ran into each otherForeverWell, I didn’t know your name at allNow I do and think about youSo I smoke a cigarette of yoursAnd want you to come toMe, holding, listening Lana’s songsRiding on the road all night longYou still don’t know me wildBut I think soon you will find

I thought if I could find loveWaking up at 3 am from a nightmareI found out that I will notThat it’s unfairMy city is asleepSo I can’t wake this upCan’t make it feel what I do feelAnd I can’t say that to my dadHe disappeared as all the menMy mom felt the same wayAs I do nowBut God, not nowLoneliness made me betterLove of mine, you were so wrongWhen you got out of this pictureAnd told “I don’t love you, no”Weather is about rainingBut I never liked itYou didYou made me to keep fallingSo I found out I can’t keepTrying as you didI like it when it’s hotThe heat makes me feel goodThe wind in my hair, oh GodI bet you’d like to feel it tooNow it’s ended just like wineMy glass is emptySo we’re both feeling fineNow we’re both happyMy birthday is comingAnd I’m wondering if you’ll callI gave up on fightingI promise, but if you don’t want to, then don’tYesterday I thought about buying candlesThen saw your face on the cover of the paperI’ve cried enough tears about youNow I do not love youThank youI want to feel that heatWonder if I fit in itPeople talking all aroundThey did it before about usThey don’t know that I foundMyself in my loneliness, plusOne more time I’ll think ‘bout youI’m searching for you in every single guy on the streetNow I need to coolYou’re gone, so I don’t feel any responsibilityAs all the men, you’re goneSo I don’t need no one more

7. Mother America

Mother America,I’m flying on a plain in the airI got staminaSo how do I dareTo take everything in this worldWhen everything’s so unfair?I remember what my mom toldOnce she decided to turn it offAnd to take care about all.Mother America,Your ground been blessedBut we’re so stressed outSo what do we do now?Now I’m looking at New YorkIts billboards are so highI can read a lotta names on itWhat we’re all looking for?I tell you – for a time that gets bySo I pray for it.I’m looking at the Lady LibertyShe’s so beautiful.Ready to look at her all night long.Oh, Lady Liberty,Tell us what we doing wrong?I’m looking at the oceanRight from your crown.Freedom is my poisonAnd I feel it now.Chemtrails above my head…I can feel them.They just like teenage loveOnce they appeared – then they have gone.The ocean blue eyes in my memory will be there forever.I won’t regret about it,Cause it was just a fever.So I see the sky as it was once before,When I was a kid and I’ve seen everything in screaming colour.And as underestimated singerI write from the bridge.Million people love herBut I wanna reach what she didn’t reach.I will write poetry looking at the Manhattan.Thinking that somewhere there a manI could fall in love with.But once he has gone.Anyway, I feel the wind from LA.Maybe one day I’ll make him stay.So my past and now will collideAnd it won’t be just for a night.Oh, Lady Liberty,Sorry for such a thoughtsBut when he comesI can see it crystal clear.He’s the only one my dear,So, please,Send me to LA,Please, make him stay.And bring this special windTo me.

I’m so sorry you’re not my baby.So sorry we passed through the time.Now I feel like bleachersAre playing to make me happy,Cause I’m leaving it all behind.You are still my favorite boyI know you’re not a toy,Instead of anybody elseI will choose you by myself.There won’t be any tears,Now we can be friends.I’m standing under the rain,It washes away all the pain.Talk to me, boy,While I’m counting secondsLike a coins.Let’s make this day the greatest,Let’s become best friends.

9. I remember…

I remember I was only twenty fourBut didn’t know what came here for.I came to San FranciscoTo dance with the people in disco.I met a boy.He had long hair, beard,
