THE BROKEN STAIRS
I walk the broken stairs
into the ruined city
where I once knew a girl
with a face so pretty
But so much time
has passed since then
I’ve been traveling the world
since god knows when
And I can’t tell
if she’s still there
does she remember my name
or does she still care
‘Cause so much time
has passed since when
I left her side
and then I ran
I ran across the desert
I sailed across the sea
I met up with the devil
and asked him to set me free
He looked at me
with an evil smile
and he said to me
“It’s gonna take a while”
So I ran back across the desert
and sailed across the sea
in my search of god
I found that he was me
And all my angels and demons
that were locked in a dance
I realize now that my life is my own
nothing left out for chance
Now I walk the broken stairs
into the ruined city
where I once knew a girl
with a face so pretty
And even though
so much time has passed
I still believe our love
is no thing of the past
IF YOU’RE GOING BACK HOME
If you’re going back home
to that far away place
where I was once known
take these words of mine
before they get lost in time
Tell my mother I’m doing fine
that I’m out on my own
and I don’t have much
but what I have is mine
Tell her I can’t come back
that I’ve gone too far
and I can’t stop now
but tell her not to worry
I’m keeping track
of all of my steps
and I’m never in a hurry
I’m not breaking my back
And if you’re going back home
to that far away place
where I was once known
take these words of mine
before they get lost in time
Tell my love I’m doing great
that I’m out on own
and I have more than enough
I’ve turned a new slate
Tell her I won’t come back
that I’ve gone too far
and I won’t stop now
I know she doesn’t worry
or keeps any track
of any of my steps
she’s always in a hurry
breaking her back
If you’re going back home
to that far away place
where I was once known
take these words of mine
before I get lost in time
BORED IN PARADISE
I’m bored in paradise
laying around on a hot summers day
I feel like I’m in hell
and I’ve got no ice
I’m just bored in paradise
I’m bored in paradise
looking down a quiet bay
I feel like I’m doing well
but don’t ask me twice
I’m just bored in paradise
I’m bored in paradise
breathing in the peaceful wind
I feel like I can fly
but I’ve got no wings to try
I’m bored in paradise
thinking about how I’ve sinned
I feel like I should seek forgiveness
but I’ve done too many things to try
I’m bored in paradise
waiting for the night
I feel like I’m all alone
but you’re right by my side
I’m just bored in paradise
I’m bored in paradise
trying to find some insight
I feel like I should share my love
but in the end I’ll run and hide
I’m just bored in paradise
LATELY
Lately I’ve been asking myself
when you’re asleep
do you ever dream of me
and when you’re awake
do you ever think of me
When you’re all alone
do you ever want to call my name
and when you’re with him
do you ever wish you were with me
Lately I’ve been thinking to myself
how much I miss your kisses and your smiles
how much I miss our talks
and how you held my hand when we used to walk for miles
And lately I’ve been thinking to myself
just how much I miss you
Lately I’ve been asking myself
when you’re asleep
do you dream about him
and when you’re awake
do you think about him
When you’re all alone
do you still call his name
and when you’re with me
do you wish you were with him
Lately I’ve been thinking to myself
do you even miss my kisses and my smiles
do you miss our talks
and how I held your hand when we used to walk for miles
And lately I’ve been thinking to myself
just how much I miss you
DRIVING IN MY CAR
Driving in my car
never thought I’d go so far
trying to find my baby
hoping she won’t say maybe
I tried calling you on the phone
but every time I called
all I heard was
“Please leave a message,
after the tone…”
I tried to follow you around
but you were nowhere to be found
I tried following the Sun
but driving in this heat sure ain’t no fun
I tried following the Moon
but she runs away just a bit too soon
I went deep inside my mind
but no matter how hard I tried
this answer I could not find
somebody tell me
where did my baby hide
I asked a sunny day
what did my baby say
did she leave town
or is she still here
I can’t find her anywhere
And I asked the stars above
to help me find my love
but they wouldn’t help me out
they just ignored me
and left me here in doubt
Now I’m driving in my car
never thought I’d go so far
trying to find my baby
hoping she won’t say maybe
I CAN’T PRETEND
In the seventh hour of the day
for the seventh time since yesterday
I’ve
thought about you girl
yeah I still think about you girl
You know I can’t pretend
and I still can’t comprehend
that what we had is gone
I just can’t ramble on
And I know it’s long overdue
but I can’t help it
I’m still thinking about you
In the seventh day of June
for the seventh year since that full moon
when everything we had came to an end
when I lost my love and my best friend
You know I can’t pretend
and I still can’t comprehend
that what we had is gone
I just can’t ramble on
And I know I’m stuck in no man’s land
but I can’t help it
I still miss my love, my friend
The seventh doctor I have seen
for the seventh time with this routine
they can’t fix my broken heart
they just say it fell apart
You know it can’t pretend
and it still can’t comprehend
that what we had is gone
my heart won’t ramble on
And I know it’s all in vain
but I can’t help it
my heart’s in too much pain
TRUTH AND LOVE
With each new line
truth reveals itself
and out of the shadows
love will appear
We live for the moment but
can we live for each other
heal our broken spirits and let
the love reunite everyone in our
world, we only have this one home
But,
with each new deception
lies spread through us all
and into the darkness
hate always leads
We can bring light but
will you even care or just
destroy this Eden of peace
it was created for you
all with the love you once knew
With truth and love
we can heal the world
but with lies and hate
we will destroy it all
THINGS I DON’T KNOW
I want to see the sky
in a different shade of blue
trying to remember
things I never knew
Like flying through the air
on softest angels wings
going up to heaven
to hear the songs he sings
Like holding you close
to feel your heartbeat
slowly falling down
landing on our own two feet
I hope one day
we can watch our child grow
trying to remember
things we don’t know
Like walking naked
into the shallow water
fooling around
as the day keeps getting hotter
Like holding your hand
and feel your every shiver
as we walk down
down into the deep wide river
So come on darling
share my point of view
try to remember
things you never knew
Like sleeping in a bed
made for me and you
haven’t you heard
dreams, they do come true
Like sitting on a hill
listening to the wind blow
please let me remember
things I don’t know
Let me remember
things I don’t know
Let me remember
things I don’t know
SEXY LADY
Hey sexy lady
won’t you slow your walkin’ down
Hey sexy lady
can we talk for a minute now
Hey sexy lady
I’m tryin’ to catch up with you
Hey sexy lady
I’m tryin’ to say a thing or two
Hey sexy lady
I really like your stylin’ ways
Hey sexy lady
I wanna feel your warm embrace
Hey sexy lady
I really dig your lovely scent
Hey sexy lady
I’ve got a clear and good intent
Hey sexy lady
I think you should give me a chance
Hey sexy lady
don’t turn me down after just one glance
Hey sexy lady
won’t you slow your walkin’ down
Hey sexy lady
can we talk for a minute now
ONE SUNDAY MORNING
I wake up to a cloudy day
I turn to see if you’re still here
and I whisper softly in your ear
“Good morning love, did you sleep well,
hope you were not awaken by the damn church bell”
You turn to me as if to say
“My love I’m here and I always will
stay by your side even if it all goes down the hill”
You kiss my lips and with your eyes
you turn the clouds into a new sunrise
And if I ever get a chance to sing
I’ll tell the whole world about us
I’ll scream and shout out just because
I want all the people to know about our thing
Out in the streets a Sunday morning
the fields relieved of all working hands
we stay in bed, no one around us understands
we haven’t made any plans, just enjoy the silence until it lasts
this world fills with violence oh so fast, too fast
Down by the river birds are singing
the air is full of words we never say
we’ll just ignore them, they don’t mater anyway
as long as you are by my side I fear no night, I fear no day
my future always looks all right with you
And if I ever get a chance to sing
I’ll tell the whole world about us
I’ll scream and shout out just because
I want all the people to know about our thing
FLYING IN MY HEAD
I’m lying in a bed
with my arms and legs in chains
feels like I’m flying in my head
but they won’t release me from these strains
People come and people go
I hear their voices and see their faces
but the words they say I do not know
my mind has gone to different places
To you it may seem strange
why I don’t stand and bloom
but it’s too late for me to change
I’m stuck forever in this room
You won’t be here for long
soon I’ll be on my own
but I’ll still sing my song
oh can’t you hear me moan
I don’t care much for friends and folks
all of them strangers, won’t get to close
but I believe life is full of jokes
guess you don’t get them, you’re just a rose
I keep lying in this bed
with my arms and legs in chains
feels like I’m flying in my head
poison running through my veins
WALK WITH ME
On my back I carry all the sins
that force me down onto my knees
and fall with me into my grave
where I will sleep and wait
until my new life begins
free from suffering and hate
I will stand up and be brave
Walk with me,
I need you to walk with me
All my troubles of today
will be forgotten and thrown away
I’ll walk this land from end to end
over sticks and stones, over bricks and bones
/> free from pains and fears and such
I will find you in the end
you know I miss you all too much
Walk with me,
I need you to walk with me
On my back I’ll carry all your sins
that force you down onto your knees
I’ll follow you into your grave
where we will sleep and wait
until our new life will begin
free from suffering and hate
we will walk together again
Walk with me,
I need you to walk with me

AUTHOR’S NOTES
This is more of a “dear diary” moment and not much of a proper outro.
Last month I published ‘Ramblings’ - and one of the things I wrote about was my internal desire to travel and the wait for something to happen.
Well something happened in the first half of April - I applied for a working holiday visa in New Zealand and got it. I plan on going there in September, for about 6-8 months.
So, yeah, that’s that.
About vol. 6 - it was written in the summer of 2012, between June and August, with the first half written in King’s Landing and nearby places of that country.
