A Little Smile From You =)
A little smile from you
Can cure the wounds of a soldier
Who just returned from war in his heart
Defeated by anger and lost from home
A little smile from you
Can tame the beast inside of a man
Who couldn’t understand how his world works
And raised his depression to the level of madness
A little smile from you
Can forgive the sins that lie within hearts
Of people who couldn’t see how wonderful life is
If they would stop being ignorant and pretending to be blind
A little smile from you
Can filter any deliberate effort of assumptions
Filled by immediate prejudices and empty opinions
That created discrimination and biases toward others

Burning People From The Desert
I thought of the endless day
When the sun won’t stop shining down
A burning tree stands still watching its own fate
Crumble as the fire laughs at his face
And I thought, “I am looking for it, ”
That’s the way I am now
The state of being burnt while you’re breathing
Away from the past, approaching to the future
And this senseless world never seems too much
To understand why people get hurt or why they cry
And those reckless just hand down to the revolutionary
Waiting for their leader to be taken down and die in vain
And then we’ll ask why
Why did you do that to me?
Why did you shoot my faultless father?
Why did you let me down?

Grenades & Young Fools
Are you enjoying this scene?
The darkness is still waiting outside
So why don’t you come and join in
While we at the top of a ride
Let’s be honest, let’s make fun
No more worries, only memories
Just what you got back there?
A TV with channels on fire
Can you see the bodies lying in there?
The stolen business isn’t right for kids!
Let’s be honest, let’s make fun
No more worries, only memories
I guess you know now that you’re holding it
That’s the thing we’ve been sucked on for years
The only way so we can get survive through ages
What, you think you’re a plastic princess out of machines?

Lone Traveler
Lone howl under the great blue night sky
A pack of wolves running through the forest
Chasing down crying little rabbit looking for a hole
Doesn’t know that every damn hole is full of corns
Lone howl under the great blue night sky
The moon shines like there is no other night
To make the curve she had to follow the relenting howl
As time runs in circle, the night goes faster than before
Lone howl under the great blue night sky
A child walks down the street of the city of angels
Knows no bond to depend on, no rope to hang on
He raised his hand for a dime, he’s only got reservation in heaven
Can you catch the notes floating with the sound
Within the cold air that freezes your bones and brain
With the snow that falls like storm,
And nothing but the white emptiness before your soul
