The River

I want to fight a war that’s on the other side of the river But I have no boat
And I have no paddles
So I guess I’ll have to swim and try not to drown ‘Cause I have people who love me
I want to fight a war that’s on the other side of the river But I’m afraid to hold a gun,
So I’ll have to fight with my fists and my teeth With my fists and my teeth
I’ll fight ’til there’s no more flesh on my bones
I’ll fight ’til all my muscles are gone
I’ll fight ’til there’s no more blood in my veins
And if I turn to dust, I’ll become thunder and burn it all in flames
I want to cross the river so I can take action in the battle But there are snakes in the water
And gators too
And the tide is high
But so are my expectations So I feed them with my anger
I’m gonna fight the war that’s on the other side of the river But I’m naked in the sun
So I’ll have to fight with my fists and my teeth With my fists and my teeth
I’ll fight ’til there’s no more flesh on my bones
I’ll fight ’til all my muscles are gone
I’ll fight ’til there’s no more blood in my veins
And if I turn to dust, I’ll become thunder and burn it all in flames

You took my life
You took my smile
You took my pride
You took away
That I could one day
Have someone by my side
Go tell it to your mother
Go tell it to your brother
You gave me a broken toy
That I can never throw away
I put it on my shelf and now
I look at it everyday
Go tell it to your mother
Go tell it to your brother
Everyday when I think of you
I feel dirty
Everyday when you think of me
And what you did
Do you feel dirty
No matter how much I wash my body I keep feeling dirty
No matter how much I wash my body I keep feeling dirty
No matter how much I rub my skin I keep feeling broken
No matter how much I wash my body I keep feeling dirty
Everyday when I think of you
I feel dirty
Everyday when you think of me
And what you did
Do you feel dirty
Go tell it to your mother
Go tell it to your brother
Go tell it to your mother
Go tell it to your brother
Go tell it on the mountain top
Every time your boxers drop
Go tell it to the medicine man
Go tell it to the internet man
Go tell it to your mother who you love so well

Video Games

When I was a kid I used to play video games for hours
It would drive my parents crazy
My mom would ask me to shut the T.V. off and come to dinner
I’d say: « Wait I’m gonna kill myself first »
It would make her laugh but it was serious to me
That’s when I would play my best game
Take risks
I knew I was leaping into my own death
But it felt good to play that way
30 years down the line it’s still the same
The only difference is my life is that video game
I died a thousand times
In a thousand different ways
I’ve already mourned by own death
I’m fine now
Everyday when I wake up I think:
« Yes, 1up »

Never Again

No never again
No never again
No never again
No never again
I throw a bottle at the sea
Hoping you will read
What became of me
’Til then it is no never again
No never again
No never again
No never again
No never again
Tell me is there a chance
To ever see you dance
As I sing in a trance
’Til then it is no never again
I’m singing as loud as I can
I’m stomping as hard as I can
I want you to hear this man
’Til then it is no never again
I am hope
I am dead
I am love
I am sex
I am infinite small in infinite stupid
I am far greater than expected
I am looser
I am two fighting roosters
I am hungry cock
I am piece of ass
I am meat and bones
I am fantasy
I am fairy
I am belle
I am escort
I am torture
I am pillow fights and gunshots
I am mine
I am fine
I am expensive glass of red wine
But there is one thing I will never be
And that is your stupid ass clown
No never again
No never again
No never again
No never again

Talking

I never knew a man could have so much to say
But it doesn’t bother me anyway
‘Cause everything that he’s saying
In fact is quite interesting
He’s talking and talking and talking
I can’t even say a word
But to me it’s like I’m meditating
His words are like seeds he’s planting in my ears
And now my heart’s growing like a flower
He’s been talking for hours, but my silence is louder
He’s been talking for hours, but my silence is louder
He’s been talking for hours, but my silence is louder
He’s been so busy talking, he didn’t hear that my silence is louder
He’s jumping from a conversation to another
Going through hard times with past lovers
I find it liberating
To hear a man that’s so open
To me
‘Cause I’m a man who can’t speak
An over-analyser trying not to look weak Oh-oh
My alarm is ringing, my soul is singing
My silence couldn’t be any louder
He’s been talking for hours, but my silence is louder
He’s been talking for hours, but my silence is louder
He’s been talking for hours, but my silence is louder
He’s been so busy talking, he didn’t hear that my silence is louder
If I K.I.S.S. H.I.M.
Maybe he will S.T.O.P talking
And then he’ll S.T.A.R.T seeing
That I’ve been W.A.N.T. ing him
He’s making me thirsty
He talks so much
Can I have some water
He just won’t hush
By the look of his lips
I want to steal a kiss
So I can seal them shut
And let him know what’s up
At the neighbourhood park
On the public bench
In his childhood barrio
By the city’s river
In the uber car
At the salad bar
In the living room couch
By his bedroom door
He’s talking
It’s C.R.A.Z.Y that I
Have to talk in C.O.D.E.S.
To let him K.N.O.W. that I
Want to R.I.P. off all his clothes
If I K.I.S.S. H.I.M.
Maybe he will S.T.O.P talking
And then he’ll S.T.A.R.T seeing
That I’ve been W.A.N.T. ing him
