In Augen der anderen
werden wir Zeit verschwenden
weil wir andere Wege gehen
nicht so wie sie enden

Obwohl wir die einzigen Menschen sind
die wirklich leben
während wir durch unsere
Welten schweben

Die einzigen die
die Wahrheit sehen
die zeitlose Klarheit
und Ruhe verstehen

Einander unsere
Kreationen zeigen
und darüber
weiter schweigen

Sehnen nach Geheimnisse
Weisheit und Wissen
während wir weinen
auf den Kissen

Stay here and hold me near tonight
don’t go searching for the light
there is nothing you will find
it just confuses, makes you blind

It moves so weird and so fast
you’re allways looking into the past
let us be forever in the dark and the cold
’cause that’s where beautiful secrets unfold

Note: I don’t like to give explainations, but I’ll do it this time because the poem is kinda complicated. The ‘light’ and the ‘dark’ are just metaphors.
The ‘light’ represents the desire (all what we want) and the past. If you live by them, like most people do, you will never become really ‘happy’, because that’s in our nature: we allways want more. And, of course, because we can not change the past. So the message is something like: stop thinking about it and live in the here and now. The light also strongly hypnotizes you, you follow it without thinking, you need it, but you can not get it and you have no control.

And the light is confusing, because according to some scientific theory’s it has a constant speed, it does not matter how the observer moves. (damn it, it’s fascinating: wish I was a physicist so I could understand it better xD) An other example: sometimes you see a star, but maybe it doesn’t even exist anymore, because the light travelled hunderds or thousunds of years before it reached your eye. So nothing is how it seems, our brain is cheating us, don’t trust your senses… that’s the message.
Ow I almost forgot: the ‘dark’ represents the nothingness, the unknown, the truth we can not see… no time, the death, peace in the soul… :)

So, this poem is about what is really valuable in life. About living in the moment (seeing it like it’s everlasting) with what you already have (your own thought and little things you love – beauty is everywhere) instead of living in the past (which you can not change) or by your desire (which makes you always want more and therefore does not bring real ‘longtime’ satisfaction/happyness). It’s also about running away from yourself and the truth, being blinded by other things like lies and fear.

Maybe this all is not true, but it’s how I saw it when I wrote it.
Thanks for reading and I hope you liked it. :)

Ubij u sebi sebi svaku strast
odstupanje vodi u propast

Zabranjeno je da se pije
sve što veseli i grije
Srce ne smije željeti ljubavi dvije
ljepota je stvorena da se krije?
Ko to zna šta može, šta ne smije?
Onaj koji nikad probao nije!

Ne za svakog ko će u zemlju leći
se da je živio može reći…
