Fire Fly: Blink

Gestern war ein weiteres Konziltreffen, davor Gesamttreffen von JFI. Die Ereignisse und Emotionen sind noch zu nah und heftig, als das ich hier schon was posten könnte. Deswegen möchte ich hier den Text eines Liedes posten, den ich auf der Rückfahrt gehört habe. Zumindest drückt er sehr gut aus, wie ich mich grade fühle, auch wenn man das nicht unbedingt aus den Lyrics herauslesen kann. Die ganze Stimmung, die Musik des Liedes ist da schon entscheidend...

BLINK
A castle to call my own, a golden carriage to take me home,
And it won't be long to a great white throne.
I look at your face and see all is not what it ought to be
And if things don't change you won't come with me.

Please tell me which way you're going
That's all I'm asking to know
Some people say that I'm crazy
Some people say that I'm going to ...

Go in the blink of an eye.
Drawing the curtains around our world broken down,
My world, broken down.

And we're riding along in a crashing car.
And we're riding a wave that won't take us far.
And we're painting by numbers but we are colour blind.
And we're shouting in whispers, still we are left behind.

Autumn is winters friend; the beauty of spring is at an end,
Summer is gone with no warmth to lend.
A moment of time is all, the blink of an eye and then we fall.
And if there's a hell will your name be called.
Please tell me what you believe in
That's all I'm asking to know
Some people say that I'm crazy
Some people say that I'm going to ...

Go in the blink of an eye.
Drawing the curtains around our world broken down,
My world, broken down.

And we're walking backwards, uphill in the park.
Eating tablets for our madness, in the dark.
And we're singing songs that no one will want to buy.
Building bridges that won't reach to the other side.
