Places

Places

Kiss yourself under the moonlight
Buy yourself a funny thing
Stay awake till midnight
With candles and a glass of gin
Remember all the happy places
Where you’ve felt you were there with friends
All the gestures all the faces
People who might understand

Your heart bleeds
And while the time beats
Nothing changes
Like an endless rain
Your hearth bleeds
While all its love sleeps
But when your mother calls
You say: there is nothing at all

There are starlights in the darkest hours
Touch the mirror soft with both your hands
Send yourself red flowers
And later give some back again
Whispering the good old stories
Try to live a life of health
Forget the past give room to glory
Rise and celebrate yourself

Your heart bleeds
And while the time beats
Nothing changes
It’s a boring pain
Your hearth bleeds
But you can’t succeed
So when your mother calls
You say: there is nothing at all
