The second's like domestic cat -
To see you home she's always glad,
And she will rub about knees
To make you happy and to please.
The first is the unwilling one
To share moon, to share sun,
To share failure and success -
It's not accustomed to stress.
The second will go hand-in-hand
By any road, through any land,
In any way you just have sighted -
And in that way you'll be united.
The first will look but with contempt
If you have riches that not tempt,
If you first offer own love -
Like useful slave you'll always bow.
The second will ask for but love
That's warm as sun, and fly as dove,
Will look at you with gleaming glance -
And that's the main dif-fe-rence.
Modern One
The Modern One, I was a fool,
The Heartless One, I was your tool,
The Sunless One, I could be light ...
I am yet again alone in night.
You are the child of this age,
I am an ancient, ageless sage,
You are the youth in ages gold,
I am immortal, very old.
Behind my steps - the thousand lives,
Behind success - the thousand tries,
Behind my wings - the thousand dreams ...
I have redeemed own sins.
I am a star in darkest night
And for myself I'm own guide,
You are reflection, shining deep,
You have no wings, you like to creep,
You like to feed on own lacks -
The child, full of epoch's bracks,
I would prefer to leave you, rather,
There is no fate for us together.
You are the victim of your age,
But time will break this golden cage,
And time will teach you how to play
With love of other, who’s your prey.
With time you'll die in mind of mine,
The time will help me not to pine,
The time will be life's own sage,
For I was born in the wrong age.
So yet again I am behind,
I am victim of my own mind,
The time will help my heart unfreeze.
There is no one.
... Or is there is?
There is but pain
All I feel now is the pain,
All my hopes were but in vain,
And there is no one to blame...
Damn it, have I gone insane?!
Will this be all just the same,
Am I but a soul lame,
Cursed to be left alone
With no love, no hope, all prone?
If I'm such a foul man -
Then ignore me when you can,
Never giving any hope,
Never leaving me to mope!
Oh, my girl, but you insist...
Yes, I’m able to resist,
Yes, I may not surrender...
Will that help, I truly wonder?
