Joker
I wear a mask but it’s not fake,
And it will not be a mistake
If you call me an idiot.
It seems my life was just a lie.
It’s stupid comedy but I
Am not a good comedian.
-
My death could stop the senseless strife
And make more profit than my life.
Don’t think I cry insanely.
Try to imagine how I live:
I just keep laughing, and believe,
It’ll somehow entertain you.
-
It’s getting crazier out there:
Life’s turning into a nightmare
Which makes no sense nor reason.
I dream of injuries and shots,
All that I have are negative thoughts…
But you don’t even listen.
-
Your life is nice and feels so right
Like party on a Friday night.
My life’s a morning after.
I’m kind of never-smiling clown
That doesn’t hide the freaking gun -
You’ll get your share of laughter.
-
You are too healthy, I’m too ill.
But from your throne of power, will
You tell me how to heal this?
Still, twice the pride - double the fall.
I’m the most normal of you all,
And I will cure the illness.

Возвращение за горизонт
Победившей тюрьмой недовольны, На руинах построим очаг – И туда, где вздымаются волны, Устремятся изящные чёлны,
В поисках полудня
Я был восходом нелюбим, Как супостат и ворог - И были там со мной грубы Правители и воры.
Yorkshire Tea
I’ve never been to land where roses bloom As white as mountain snow in Yorkshire Dales. I’ve never seen the home of singers, whom I praise as minstrels of forgotten tales.
VI. Исполин
Замок оплавлен, распахнулись двери. Ты остаешься с ним наедине. За прорезями шлема он уверен: Везет тому, кто больше и сильней.
