Nobody Home

Note: 

This lyrics cannot be more appropriate right now.

I've got a little black book with my poems in 
Got a bag with toothbrush and comb in
When I'm good dog, they sometimes throw me a bone in

I got elastic bands keepin' my shoes on
Got those swollen-hand blues
I got thirteen channels of shit on the TV to choose from

I've got electric light
And I've got second sight
I got amazing powers of observation
And that is how I know
When I try to get through
On the telephone to you

There'll be nobody home

I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm
And the inevitable pinhole burns
All down my favorit satin shirt

I've got nicotine stains on my fingers
I've got a silver spoon on a chain
Got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains

I got wild staring eyes
And I've got a strong urge to fly
But I got nowhere to fly to

Ooh, babe when you pick up the phone
There's still nobody home

I've got a pair of Gohills boots 
But I got fading roots

So true right now...so true!

"I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed
Get along with voices inside of my head
You're trying to save me, stop holding your breath
And you think I'm crazy, yeah, you think I'm crazy

Well, that's nothing
Well, that's nothing..."

Mit einer Spieluhr in der hand

Ein kleiner Mensch strib nur zum Schein
wollt ganz alleine sein
Das kleine Herz stand sill für Stunden
So hat man er für tod befunden
Es wird verscharrt in nassem Sand

CHOP SUEY!

I don't think you trust
In, my, self-righteous suicide
I, cry, when angels deserve to die

Father! Father! Father! Father!
"Father into your hands, I commend my spirits"*
Father into your hands
Why have you forsaken me
In your eyes forsaken me
In your thoughts forsaken me
In your heart forsaken me


* Luke 23:46

'This' cannot be more fitting for this moment!

Song: Time
Artist: Pink Floyd
Written by: Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, Richard Wright

Ticking away the moments
That make up a dull day
Fritter and waste the hours
In an off-hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground
In your home town
Waiting for someone or something
To show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine
Staying home to watch the rain
You are young and life is long
And there time is still kill today

And then the one day you find 
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

And you run and you run
to catch up with the sun
But it's sinking

Racing around
To come up behind you again

The sun is the same
In a relative way
But you're older

Shorter of breath
And one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter
Never seem to find time

Plans that either come to naught
Or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desperation
Is the English way

The time is gone
The song is over
Thought I'd something more to say

Home
Home again
I like to be here
When I can

When I come home
Cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones
Beside the fire

Far away
Across the field 
Tolling on the iron bell
Calls the faithful to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell
