Albert Camus

It is normal to give away a little of one's life in order not to lose it all.

My Life

in my room; chamber nowadays nothing; there is no decoration disturb
also voices
and any movement
outside there
in roadway
in office
it is true there is voices
movement and trappings
at nature
but assumed by there no
because us, according to religion
have to control the passion
and habit in the world of we
it obliged is inversed the than normal life
whether us have abnormal
whether life us have to be abnormal
to become normal
listening go order which according to him told to us from God
whether us have to be kept quiet, without passion
and let God move the life
then who is me,

Returning to South Carolina meant getting a normal job in a normal town with normal people and marrying a normal person. I wanted the glamour and opportunity of the world.

Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work, driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for, in order to get to a job that you need so you can pay for the clothes, car and the house that you leave empty all day in order to afford to live in it.

Normal

Pain is in proportion to livingness.
The more alive you are,
the more it hurts
to live.
This is normal.

The young hurt most
but mend quickest.
New flesh heals
where old flesh withers.
Young mind feels
pain piercing and deep;
often so deep that of itself it heals;
a child that cries itself to sleep,
cries and forgets in eternal singing.
This too is normal.

Until clinging
enters the heart,
laying up the treasure
of its tears
to be disinterred in later years,
repented at unwanted leisure.
And this is normal.

The prophet said:
“I will give you life more abundant.”
His shadow added:
“And more abundant pain to go with it.”
Quite normal.

Amidst so much normality
the pain is what shines through,
making a mere formality
of what you think you want to do.

Grasping out and feeling pain.

Letting go and letting heal again.
See where the yellow banner is unfurled:
“All is for the Norm
in this most normal of all possible worlds.”

Love is hard

What happens when you have to say goodbye
do everything just go back to normal
well i can't do because im already intangled
in the mist of the love i feel for you
is it normal
to fall for a guy who already has one week
one week left to seem me
untill he leaves for college
to go his separate ways
is it normal
for me to cry at his graduation
for me to break down
when i only began to know him
is it normal
for me to be jealous of the thought of future girls
when i know that we cant be together anymore
love is the best and worst thing tha can ever happen
love is hard
is it normal

I ask every Communist individually to set an example, by deeds and without pretense, a real example worthy of a man and a Communist, in restoring order, starting normal life, in resuming work and production, and in laying the foundations of an ordered life.

Hey, hey!
Dont wanna be a drag,
Evrybody gotta bag.
I know you know

You dont know what you got until you lose it,
You dont know what you got until you lose it,

Oh, baby, baby, baby, give me one more chance.

You know its such a drag to face another day.

Rhymes Stop Here

In this world there are two types,
The normal people and the not so normal,
The normal ones are the ones who wear stripes,
Always dressing as they need to be formal.

The not so normal ones,
Act and dress totally nuts,
Some wear dark makeup by the tons,
Some even get the courage or the guts,
To tell you what is right or not.

I stopped rhyming to tell you,
That even though some are different on the outside,
We are all the same on the inside.
Remember this when you sum up the stupid to bully again.

Give me that
Stupid intelligence
To underunderstand
Intelligent stupids!

Give me that
Deaf eager ear
To listen
Euphonic cacophony!

Give me that
Blind veritable vision
To view cyclorama e’er
Argus-eyed view ne’er!

Give me that
Rocky ricrac heart
To embellish emblazon
Bonanzas of smiling Daisy!

I shun revel wassail
Normal senses
They’re indeed
Foolery formal
Petite elfin normal!

I’m Ms. Nivedita no
Stickjawed poseur
Au fait mandiblectual

Heart-shaped Bruise

Tell me now, or am I only dreaming?
Tell me now, or are you only teasing?
I felt the cold hard facts of life
Five degrees from freezing
Does it amuse you to always hurt me so?
I try my best, its not enough
Should I give up and let you go?
Theres nothing more to take from me
Theres nothing more to give you dear
Theres nothing else that I can lose
Except this heart-shaped bruise
It will fade from purple to black
It will fade just as the day was lost into twilight
Tell me now or am I only dreaming?
You said that youd be mine for life
And now you say youre leaving
If I could hold you once more before you go
When I approach you you just lash out
Should I give up and let you...
What more is there to take from me?
Theres nothing more to give you dear
Theres nothing more that I can lose
Except this heart-shaped bruise

It's funny how...

It's funny how its requires us to lose some one in order to realise what we had in that person
It's funny how some thing drastic needs to occur for us to realise who was there for us every time we needed them but we just neglected them
It's strange how life occurs
Testing us every second of every hour of every day just for us to realise what's what and who's who
But we just dont do what life asks for
We oppose it
And lose sight of what really matters
It's funny how what you do to some one will come back and bite you in the butt when you least expect
So you can have a taste of your own medication
Live and let live
Enjoy life to the fullest
Treasure everyone who comes into your life
The fack ones will disaspear when you are in need the most
Life sure is funny how it operates......

You Can't Lose At Love (Crush Demo)

You can lose at cards
You can lose your keys
You can lose the house or lose the lease
You can lose your car, you can lose the race
You can lose your mind or lose your faith
Take a look around and hear what I've gotta say
You can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
No, you can't lose at love
We could lose the plot
Or we could lose our way
But I ain't going to lose
These ain't good games we're playing
Let me make you an offer too good to refuse
No, you can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
But you can't lose at love
Now we just might roll a seven, these ain't loaded dice
We'll never get to heaven from this driveway tonight
You've heard a million promises that's never come through
Baby I'm telling you we're due
You can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
Chose anything you can dream of
But baby, you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
Cause you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
No, you can't lose at love
Take a chance on me
You can't lose at love
No, you can't lose at love
You can't lose at love
You can't lose
You can't lose

Would You Follow Me

(john kongos)
Would you follow me if I search for another life
Would you walk with me through the dark and the hungry times
If I said, Im gonna leave today
What would you do
Would you pack some things and come away too
Lose or win, thick or thin
Where would you like to be
Lose or win, thick or thin
Would you follow me
Would you follow me
Even though my dreams seem too far away today
Take a chance and
Stand by my side and
Lose or win, thick or thin
Where would you like to be
Lose or win, thick or thin
Would you follow me
Would you follow me
If I said Im goin away to join some revolution
Could you ever give up what they call the good life
Would you care to know what Im lookin for
And if I find it
Would you take note of the time, would you mind it
Lose or win, thick or thin
Where would you like to be
Lose or win, thick or thin
Would you follow me
Would you follow me

The Purpose Of Life

we are humans nothing less
no one is perfect everyone makes mistake
we hurt each other, we hates each other
that's the purpose of life
when we end up lonely it's normal to treats others in a bad situation
when we have no one to run to or to speaks with it's normal to be used
that's the purpose of life
how would the world works without struggling?
life is not fair it is just a pain so understand that
life is all about taking risks so understand the task
the purpose of life

Everything I Own

You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm kept me warm
You gave my life to me
You set me free
Set me free
The finest years I ever knew
For all the years I had with you
I would give anything I own
I'd give up me life my heart my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
You taught me how to love
What a time what a time
You never said too much
But still you showed the way
And I knew from watching you
Nobody else could ever know
The part of me that can't let go
I would give everything I own
Give up me life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own
Just to have you back again
Is there someone you know
Loving them so
Taking them all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone takes them away
And they don't hear the words you
Long to say
Give up my life, give up my heart
Everthing I own
I would give anything I own
Give up me life, my heart, my home
I would give everything I own Just to have you back again

Don't Lose Courage

When things go wrong and you are blue,
When there’s nothing that you want to do,
When you feel your world’s falling apart,
When you feel that you just can’t make a start.
Don’t lose courage, don’t lose heart,
Put on a smile and restart.
For life is precious and shouldn’t be thrown away,
And after every dark night there’s a bright day.

When the road ahead seems all uphill,
And your chances of happiness range from zero to nil.
When life is hard and your spirits, are low,
When there’s nowhere for you to go.
Don’t lose courage, don’t lose strength,
Get on your feet and start again.
For though today is sad, tomorrow will give,
A brand new reason for you to live.
