And The Stars Look Very Different Today


It's 3 o'clock in the morning 
The city has a silent mood
Meg White plays drums underneath my brain

I'm lying on the matress 
The blanket is full of cozy childish thoughts

I'm quite dumb 
In my dream, I repeated to myself 
'I would love to fall in love' 

The sunlight spots spit slowly into my mind 
I was in another bedroom
It was full of magical trees 
It was full of gigantic wooden buildings 

'How much do I desire to fall in love?', I asked to myself

I thought everybody lies, loves and hates on a daily basis
I saw myself as a stupid guy, sporadically writing and looking at the clock
Burned memories crossed the alleys of my brain
Maybe I was too stoned to understand all the symbols 

Suddenly, my left arm was damaged
It felt like if a hot needle scrapped thru my skin 

'Well, you're in love', I repeated to myself
There was a Queen possessing my brain 
She was a chubby girl and she looked like Meg White 

She raised her eyebrows and her eyes were covered with sun glasses 
Her lips were made up like a woman of nineteenth-century royalty
And I thought that she had a perfect vision and that her lips were murderous 


Off this space 
Burned memories floated like a sneeze  
As they crossed the alleys of my brain 

They were also soaked by some kind of bloody water 

'I like you so much...', I repeated to myself

My skin crashed with a deafening and invisible touch
I thought it was the way DNA exploded thru hallucination

'I cannot stop thinking about you...', I repeated to myself and I felt so guilty

You're so cruel, lady!
Leave me alone!

I still feel you
Inside my head
Scratching my skin 
Like a needle attached to a loaded heroin syringe

I'm counting backwards 
Like if I was about to escape from Earth 

This sensation is painful 
I hear this song out of nowhere 
As I remember you as Meg White 
As I feel devastated by the deafening drums 

I'm waking up 
I feel so thirsty that I could drink gallons of water 

3: 00 a. m.

This powerful silent mood of the night
Whispers to me like a drug

I'm too dumb and I still think about you 
I still close my eyes and I see you
I still sigh and I remember your smell 

You smelled like a nineteen year old girl
But your soul was an older soul 

You smelled like burning sex
Like starved Emperor penguins feeding each other
Thru the endless winter
