Fifty Years

Fifty Years since I smiled
Fifty Years since I looked at the bright blue sky
Fifty Years I wasted and didn’t look at the wonderful stars
Lighting their brilliance and beauty in every hour
I should have remembered them, not letting them pass by
Fifty Years spent without meeting you
Fifty Years without remembering my old “crew”
Fifty Years since I had loved love truly
Fifty Years I stayed in my shell coolly
Fifty Years I stayed in my prison underground
Fifty Years I could not see the even the ground
Damp and Rough as it used to be
Nothing had changed, for all I could see
Fifty Years since I had opened my eyes
Fifty Years passed with my heart having dim-lit fireflies
Fifty Years wasted without feeling
Love And Pain to fill me in every hour
Pleasure And Happiness was like a free bar
Fifty Years I lived living like the dead
Fifty Years but I could still not get it out of my heart,
That tiny piece of lead

Fifty Years I spent in the dark

Fifty Years I never heard the lark

Fifty Years but I still have this scar

Fifty Years I forgot the stars

Lighting their brilliance and beauty in every hour

I should have remembered them, not letting them pass by

Fifty Years spent without meeting you

Fifty Years without remembering my old “crew”

Fifty Years since I had loved love truly

Fifty Years I stayed in my shell coolly

Fifty Years I stayed in my prison underground

Fifty Years I could not see the even the ground

Damp and Rough as it used to be

Nothing had changed, for all I could see

Fifty Years since I had opened my eyes

Fifty Years passed with my heart having dim-lit fireflies

Fifty Years wasted without feeling

Love And Pain used to fill me in every hour

Pleasure And Happiness was like a free hamburger bar

Fifty Years I lived living like the dead

Fifty Years but I could still not get it out of my heart,

That tiny piece of lead
