no subject song

[Guest guest]

whitman wrote "song of myself" and here is myself sung

 

chorus:

caught in the middle of some time

solving the riddle of what's yours and mine

it may sound simple just spending time

let the ghosts do the talking i'll do mine.

 

lies sat next to the one eyed man

showed him some big master plan--

no one to see it

(no one can!)

so he opened his eye and the world began. ..

 

here are the lies

here are your eyes

here are mine

 

hey long ago i was someone

i didn't mean nothin' to anyone

i danced with stars

turned my back to the sun

someone told me to walk

and i'd just run

 

chorus etc

 

they can fill you up with drugs and rules

cram your head with god and school

remember the sin you didn't do

remember what "they" did to you

 

chorus

 

let the ghosts do the talking

i'll hear

i

 

words music

gen berlin*

 

berlin is my chosen name-- at the time i felt it represented the failure

of walls to prosper or stand or even exist -- the knowlege that peace

love and freedom prevail.

 

now i know that i didn't need another name!

 

i write these songs here -- heard long ago-- for you who are my own

self.

and this you already know

love

always (means eternal)
