Do Not Let the World Get You Down do not let the world get you down we know the world … More

the train pulls in
i do not get on
because it is not there
an inanimate object with a soul
and a driver with 1930’s hair

the day fades away
it is almost tomorrow
goodbye yesterday
things are different now
yet they are the same somehow

i am looking
for a girl like you
fall for me
and i will makes things good

Forever People the forever people do not walk the earth they travel the sky holding hands with those who die … More

and i cried –
remembering cine film of yesterday
being five
getting a train set for my birthday
repairing my glasses, so i could see

they did not say why
late for what?
they stole all our heroes
now they have all gone

i do not have any faith
i do not know what i am meant to believe in
i have never been encouraged
not by the world around me
which is always putting people down

i have not stopped –
thinking about you
it is so long –
since i have felt like this
self contained bliss
