I Don'T Want To Blink

Sometimes
I don’t want to think
I don’t want to blink
I don’t want to imagine
I don’t want to be seen
I don’t want to dream
I don’t want to scream
I just want to make a scene
To tell it like it on the screen.

Sometimes
I don’t want to drink
I don’t want to blank
I don’t want to forgive
But I want to live
I want to forget
What I cannot get
I want to speak out very loud
Because I am always proud
To be whom or what I am then and now
I love, admire others and I don’t bow.

Sometimes
I want to be very nice
Even though I don’t like rice
I want to forgive
I want to give
I don’t want to forget
What I cannot get
I don’t want to blank
I don’t want to shrink
Sometimes.
