Wearying Sleep / Cansar Sueño
The world spins
And so many fall down
The world offers forced, false grins
Like painted circus clowns
Laughing as you slowly drown.
Tolerance at an all time high
Nothing but a communal lie
Look at those still cast aside
But no one ever does.
In this corner each day I stand
This magic, internal, mythic land
This so often solitary, quiet man
Held by thoughts
That feel like quicksand
Full of dreams and hopes and plots
But so afraid to make demands.
Never do I ask
For what I do not need
For the asking is a task
So difficult for me
So my smile becomes my mask
For things long buried deep
In a restless, endless, wearying sleep.
El mundo gira
Y que muchos se quedan abajo
El mundo ofrece forzado, falso sonríe
Como pintar payasos circo
Poco a poco uno se va riendo como ahogarse.
Tolerancia en un momento alto
Nada más que una mentira comunal
Mira a los todavía echar a un lado
Pero nadie.
En este rincón cada día estoy
Este truco de magia, interno, tierra mítica
Esta tan a menudo solitario, un hombre tranquilo
Celebrada por los pensamientos
Que se sienten como arenas movedizas
Llena de sueños y esperanzas y parcelas
Pero tanto miedo a hacer peticiones.
No le pido
Por lo que no necesito
Para el que pregunto es una tarea
Tan difícil para mí
Así que mi sonrisa se convierte en mi máscara
Para cosas sepultadas
En un inquieto, interminable, abrumar el sueño.
