Aquarius
Aquarius, a good friend of mine,
leading the people around me since the beginning of time.
Hilarious the way he is kind,
now he's showing to me what I always wanted to see.
The chaotic side of life,
which makes you feel free like a raven flying high.
I see the people drown,
women, children, men, all looking like clowns,
ridiculous and stupid the way they are.
Confetti, which once was their home,
taking their breath, closing their throat.
Disgusting this world, which made me spit blood.
Through beautiful words, the well-known sky falls apart,
seeing it burn to the ground and rise again in a hot, hard-burning flame.
This is the nirvana I wanted to feel,
the heartbreaking truth my psyche needed to hear.
This, my friend, is the harmonic sound of change,
destroying all we had and ever made.
But what is that?
Through all the ashes and flames,
there's a little mad man who's ready to rule the world.
He climbs up on the mountain of dirt,
completely destroyed and badly hurt.
He will build what once was destroyed,
and that's how he'll find peace
in this round wheeled, repeating world.
