Mirror

"

Wenn ich mich im Spiegel betrachte möchte ich die Landkarte meines Lebens sehen.
Das Tal der Tränen, die Höhen der Freude. Den Schalk im Nacken. Ein Funkeln in den Augen.
Was vergangen ist ist vorbei, was kommt bleibt verborgen. Ich lebe! Ohne etwas zu bereuen.
Hier und jetzt. - M.T.

Mirror

T: Marcus Testory – M: Matthias Ambré & Marcus Testory

Wisdom of age is just a damned lie
another folly dazzling my mind's eye
But there's a lesson to be learned, I'm afraid
young cuties no more will be churned.
Their hearts now belong to those,
whose craft and art just arose
Remember how good it felt,
how I wish they'd still come to melt
for my prose, my charm, my smile
but that's gone since a while

But right here, right now
I'm alive
right here, right now
I'm alive

for the face in the mirror implies
a life enjoyed to the full
and a little rogue's beady eyes
still reaching out for the skies

All wealth at the end of the day
at the dawn of a man's decay
won't keep me alive, hanging on
when those I've loved are all gone.
So I waste my love as much as I can
discover, take delight and learn
for the face in the mirror implies
a life enjoyed to the full
a little rogue's beady eyes
still reaching out for the skies
