Snail
Sometimes the way home takes so long
Sometimes I get so tired and exhausted
As soon as I open the door, I fall asleep
And when I wake up, no one is there
When I lay my body in the small bathtub,
A small snail comes to me and whispers in a soft voice
That someday when that day comes,
it will go to the ocean at the end of this harsh world
No one saw it but I will follow the sound of the waves in my memory
I want to go forever
Everyone is in their cars, going somewhere.
I am walking on the street with
a pack of cigarettes and a melting icecream bar
The sun is up high, shining on me
When a small snail comes to me
And greets me and sings for me quietly
That someday when that day comes,
it will go to the ocean at the end of this harsh world
No one saw it but I will follow the sound of the waves in my memory
I want to go forever
I gave up my everything
But now everything is fading away like smoke
With my remaining strengh, in my last dream,
I will cross the ocean so I will forget everything
That someday when that day comes,
it will go to the ocean at the end of this harsh world
No one saw it but I will follow the sound of the waves in my memory
I want to go forever
