[!] HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG [!]



I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian.



I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.



I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.



We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.



I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.



I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.



I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.



I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.



We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.



I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.



I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.



I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.



I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.



I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.



I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.



I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.



I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn't have to always deal with society hating me.



I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.



I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

dead can dance..


Don't fade away
My brown-eyed girl
Come walk with me
I'll fill your heart with joy
And we'll dance through our isolation
Seeking solace in the wisdom we bestow
Turning thoughts to the here and everafter
Consuming fears in our fiery halos

Say what you mean
Mean what you say
I've heard that innocence
Has led us all astray

But don't let them make you and break you
The world is filled with their broken empty
dreams
Silence is their only virtue
Locked away inside their silent screams

But for now
Let us dance away
This starry night
Filled with the glow of fiery stars
And with the dawn
Our sun will rise
Bringing a symphony of bird cries

Don't bring me down now
Let me stay here for awhile
You know life's too short
Let me bathe here in your smile
I'm transcending
The fall from the garden

Goodnight






----------------------------------

All around me are familiar faces



Worn out places, Worn out faces



Bright and early for the daily races



Going nowhere, Going nowhere



Their tears are filling up their glasses



No expression, No expression



Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow



No tomorrow, No tomorrow



And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad



These dreams in which i'm dying, Are the best I've ever had



I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take



When people run in circles it' a very very.



Mad World, Mad World



Children waiting for the day they feel good



Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday



And they feel the way that every child should



Sit and listen, Sit and listen



Went to school and I was very nervous



No one knew me, No one knew me



Hello teacher tell me whats my lesson



Look right through me, Look right through me



And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad



These dreams in which i'm dying, Are the best I’ve ever had



I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take



When people run in circles it’s a very very….



Mad World, Mad World



Enlargen your world



Mad World

"l'encre de tes yeux" (Francis Cabrel)



Puisqu'on ne vivra jamais tous les deux

Puisqu'on est fou, puisqu'on est seul

Puisqu'ils sont si nombreux

Même la morale parle pour eux

J'aimerais quand même te dire,

Tout ce que j'ai pu écrire

Je l'ai puisé dans l'encre de tes yeux



Je n'avais pas vu que tu portais des chaìnes

à trop vouloir te regarder j'en oubliais les miennes

On révait de Venise et de liberté

J'aimerais quand même te dire,

Tout ce que j'ai pu écrire

C'est ton sourire qui me l'a dicté



Tu viendras longtemps marcher dans mes rêves

Tu viendras toujours du coté où le soleil se lève

Et si malgré ca j'arrive à t'oublier

J'aimerais quand même te dire,

Tout ce que j'ai pu écrire

Aura longtemps le parfum des regrets.



Et puisqu'on ne vivra jamais tous les deux...



-----------------------------------------------------------------



"Pour ne pas vivre seul

On vit avec un chien

On vit avec des roses

Ou avec une croix

Pour ne pas vivre seul

On s’fait du cinéma

On aime un souvenir

Une ombre, n’importe quoi

Pour ne pas vivre seul

On vit pour le printemps

Et quand le printemps meurt

Pour le prochain printemps

Pour ne pas vivre seul

Je t’aime et je t’attends pour avoir l’illusion

De ne pas vivre seule, de ne pas vivre seule



Pour ne pas vivre seules

Des filles aiment des filles

Et l’on voit des garçons

Epouser des garçons

Pour ne pas vivre seuls

D’autres font des enfants

Des enfants

Qui sont seuls

Comme tous les enfants

Pour ne pas vivre seul

On fait des cathédrales

Où tous ceux

Qui sont seuls

S’accrochent à une étoile

Pour ne pas vivre seule

Je t’aime et je t’attends pour avoir l’illusion

De ne pas vivre seule



Pour ne pas vivre seul,

On se fait des amis

Et on les réunit

Quand vient les soirs d’ennui

On vit pour son argent,

Ses rêves, ses palaces

Mais on n’a jamais fait

Un cercueil à deux places

Pour ne pas vivre seule,

Moi je vis avec toi

Je suis seule avec toi,

Tu es seul avec moi.

Pour ne pas vivre seul

On vit comme ceux qui veulent

Se donner l’illusion

De ne pas vivre seul."

"Echoes" (Pink Floyd)



Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air

And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves

The echo of a distant tide

Comes willowing across the sand

And everything is green and submarine

And no one showed us to the land

And no one knows the wheres or whys

But something stares and

Something tries

And starts to climb towards the light



Strangers passing in the street

By chance two separate glances meet

And I am you and what I see is me

And do I take you by the hand

And lead you through the land

And help me understand the best I can

And no one calls us to the land

And no one crosses there alive

And no one speaks

And no one tries

And no one flies around the sun



And now this is the day you fall

Upon my waking eyes

Inviting and inciting me to rise

And through the window in the wall

Comes streamin in on sunlight wings

A million bright ambassadors of morning

And no one sings me lullabies

And no one makes me close my eyes

So I throw the windows wide

And call to you across the sky







------------------------------------------------



"the rain song" (Led Zeppelin)



This is the springtime of my loving-

The second season I am to know

You are the sunlight in my growing-

So little warmth I’ve felt before.

It isn’t hard to feel me glowing-

I watched the fire that grew so low.



It is the summer of my smiles-

Flee from me keepers of the gloom.

Speak to me only with your eyes

It is to you I give this tune.

Ain’t so hard to recognize-

These things are clear to all from

Time to time. ooooh...



Talk talk-

I’ve felt the coldness of my winter

I never thought it would ever go

I cursed the gloom that set upon us...



But I know that I love you so

But I know that I love you so.



These are the seasons of emotion

And like the winds they rise and fall

This is the wonder of devotion-

I see the torch we all must hold.

This is the mystery of the quotient-

Upon us all a little rain

Must fall.

"Je l'aime à mourir" (Francis cabrel)



Moi je n'étais rien et voilà qu'aujourd'hui,

Je suis le gardien du sommeil de ses nuits. Je l'aime à mourir

Vous pouvez détruire tout ce qui vous plaira

Elle n'a qu'à ouvrir l'espace de ses bras

Pour tout reconstruire. Pour tout reconstruire. Je l'aime à mourir



Elle a gommé les chiffres des horloges du quartier

Elle a fait de ma vie des cocottes en papier, des éclats de rire

Elle a bâti des ponts entre nous et le ciel

Et nous les traversons à chaque fois qu'elle

Ne veut pas dormir. Ne veut pas dormir. Je l'aime à mourir



Elle a dû faire toutes les guerres pour être aussi forte aujourd'hui,

Elle a dû faire toutes les guerres de la vie et l'amour aussi.



Elle vit de son mieux son rêve d'opaline

Elle danse au milieu des forêts qu'elle dessine. Je l'aime à mourir

Elle porte des rubans qu'elle laisse s'envoler

Elle me chante souvent que j'ai tort d'essayer

De les retenir. De les retenir. Je l'aime à mourir



Pour monter dans sa grotte cachée sous les toits

Je dois clouer des notes à mes sabots de bois. Je l'aime à mourir

Je dois juste m'asseoir, je ne dois pas parler,

Je ne dois rien vouloir, je dois juste essayer

De lui appartenir. De lui appartenir.



Je l'aime à mourir



Elle a dû faire toutes les guerres pour être aussi forte aujourd'hui,

Elle a dû faire toutes les guerres de la vie et l'amour aussi.



Moi je n'étais rien et voilà qu'aujourd'hui,

Je suis le gardien du sommeil de ses nuits. Je l'aime à mourir

Vous pouvez détruire tout ce qui vous plaira

Elle n'aura qu'à ouvrir l'espace de ses bras

Pour tout reconstruire. Pour tout reconstruire. Je l'aime à mourir

"Comfortably Numb" (Pink Floyd)



Hello.

Is there anybody in there?

Just nod if you can hear me.

Is there anyone home?



Come on, now.

I hear you’re feeling down.

Well I can ease your pain,

Get you on your feet again.



Relax.

I need some information first.

Just the basic facts:

Can you show me where it hurts?



There is no pain, you are receding.

A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon.

You are only coming through in waves.

Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’.

When I was a child I had a fever.

My hands felt just like two balloons.

Now I got that feeling once again.

I can’t explain, you would not understand.

This is not how I am.

I have become comfortably numb.



Ok.

Just a little pinprick. [ping]

There’ll be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!

But you may feel a little sick.



Can you stand up?

I do believe it’s working. good.

That’ll keep you going for the show.

Come on it’s time to go.



There is no pain, you are receding.

A distant ship’s smoke on the horizon.

You are only coming through in waves.

Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re sayin’.

When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,

Out of the corner of my eye.

I turned to look but it was gone.

I cannot put my finger on it now.

The child is grown, the dream is gone.

I have become comfortably numb.

"Amity" (The gathering)



The torture won't part you

Motherly breast won't warm you

You fail and foam from your mouth

why is it so loud, this sound?



All the sense your are capable of

does not seem to save you

You heed the glance of a smile

Was it impossible to float for a while?



Restless is carrying fever

burning you to pieces

In search and need of a friend

Will I bow down to this in the end?



I lay in the hands of my maker

and I want to spend the rest of it awake

Why do I get the feeling they'll brake it

It's a fight... it's a fight...



The torture won't part you

Mothers lap can't seem to warm you

You strain, you climb up and frown

Why is it so loud, This down?



All the sense you are capable of

does not seem to save you

You heed the glance of a smile

Was it impossible to float for a while?



I lay in the hands of my maker

And I want to spend the rest of it awake

Why do I get the feeling they'll brake it

It's a fight... it's a fight



-------------------------------------------



"Sorrow" (Pink Floyd)



The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land

Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:

A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers,

But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking



He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise

In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise

He's chained forever to a world that's departed

It's not enough, it's not enough



His blood has frozen & curdled with fright

His knees have trembled & given way in the night

His hand has weakened at the moment of truth

His step has faltered



One world, one soul

Time pass, the river rolls



It's not enough it's not enough

His hand has faltered

.... .... ......



And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication

And silent replies that swirl invitation

Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea

A grim intimation of what is to be



There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night

And there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight

And silence that speaks so much louder that words,

Of promises broken



------------------------------------------------------



"Achilles last stand" (Led Zeppelin)



It was an April morning when they told us we should go

And as I turned to you, you smiled at me, how could we say no?



With all the fun to have, to live the dreams we always had

Oh, the songs to sing, when we at last return again



Sending off a glancing kiss, to those who claim they know

Below the streets that steam and hiss,

The devil's in his hole



Oh to sail away, To sandy lands and other days

Oh to touch the dream, Hides inside and never seen.



Into the sun the south the north, at last the birds have flown

The shackles of commitment fell, In pieces on the ground



Oh to ride the wind, To tread the air above the din

Oh to laugh aloud, Dancing as we fought the crowd



To seek the man whose pointing hand, The giant step unfolds

To guide us from the curving path, That churns up into stone



If one bell should ring, in celebration for a king

So fast the heart should beat, As proud the head with heavy feet.



Days went by when you and I, bathed in eternal summers glow

As far away and distant, Our mutual child did grow



Oh the sweet refrain, Soothes the soul and calms the pain

Oh Albion remains, sleeping now to rise again



Wandering and wandering, What place to rest the search

The mighty arms of Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth



The mighty arms of Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth

From the earth...



I know the way, know the way, know the way, know the way



Oh the mighty arms of Atlas, Hold the heavens from the earth.























"they all became part of the river.it was the goal of all of them,yearning,desiring,suffering;and the river's voice was full of longing,full of smarting woe,full of insatiable desire.the river flowed on towards it's goal.Siddartha saw the river hasten,made up of himself and his relatives and all the people he had ever seen.all the waves and water hastened,suffering,towards goals,many goals,to the waterfall,to the sea,to the current,to the ocean and all the goals were reached and each one was succeeded by another.the water changed to vapor and rose,became rain and came down again,became spring,brook and river,changed anew,flowed anew,but the yearning voice had altered,it still echoed sorrowfully,searchingly but other voices accompanied it,voices of pleasure and sorrow,good and evil voices,laughing and lamenting voices,hundreds of voices,thousands of voices........"

Siddartha , Herman Hesse
