Wandering


Tequila dawn and solitary beer
In an orgy of forbidden dreams
Lead to cemetery sadness as
Bells toll for the Angelus;

We who try, and in our youth we
Tried a thousand times, to trek
To the utopia of our summer
Still we fail to sing hallelujahs;

The lighthouse's light gets fainter
And fainter like tears of sweat
Crawling into an empty bottle
Lying in a gutter that cuts our guts;

We keep on asking, wondering
Who cares, as we cared a million times
About reality; we crave for illusions
To illumine our existence

In this universe of bloodshot eyes,
Empty hearts, blazing hate,
Feigned love, desperate greed
That fill the abyss of our emptiness;

When will this end
We wonder, yes, we wondered
Countless times, when this wandering
Through mazy nothingness

Will ever end.
