Not the same, |
|
we are changed and we are changing still; |
|
I've been waiting for the beans to spill. |
|
If the truth be told all the plots will unfold: |
|
we've as many lives as we have friends or acquaintances, |
|
we're all only fractions of a whole. |
|
Self-belief |
|
glues together personality; |
|
well-accomplished in all vanity, |
|
in a life-long dream the consciousnesses stream |
|
through as many lives as this: all the voices in our heads. |
|
My brother's keeper |
|
under no lock or key |
|
will you always look out for me? |
|
I don't remember, I don't remember, |
|
I don't remember the names, |
|
the essential's familiar, the personality's under change... |
|
Through your eyes |
|
I can see reflections of my own, |
|
I feel I'm losing sight of all I've known |
|
and I'm spiralling down, in the gene pool drowned... |
|
Truth is buried deep and just as well: |
|
we've as many lives as lies we tell, |
|
all the self-taught fragments of fractured personalities. |
|
I don't remember your name. |
