There Is No Comparison

there is no comparison
between you and
me, there is no similarity
or difference

for you are you and i am i
in the comfort of ourselves
we are parallel lights
moving forces
strong and
alive

to each direction
each is
and will always be
intentionally
free

Indifference / Alive

I will light the match this mornin' so I won't be alone
Watch as she lies silent for soon that will be gone
Oh I will stand arms outstretched pretend I'm free to roam
I will make my way through one more day in hell
How much difference does it make
How much difference does it make
I will hold the candle till it burns up my arm
Oh I'll keep takin' punches ha-ha until their will grows tired
Oh I will stare the sun down until my eyes go blind
Hey I won't change direction and I won't change my mind
How much difference does it make yea
How much difference does it make how much difference
I'll swallow poison until I grow immune
I will scream my lungs out till it fills this room
How much difference (x2)
How much difference does it make yea
How much difference does it make

Crash World

Crash, That was you and Me
Started out so innocently
Shattered on the ground, I hear the sound
Crash, Ringing in my ears
I still feel the sting of my tears
Someone wake me, I can't seem to break free
[chorus]
Go on, get out of my head
I'm on the wrong side of a parallel universe
Am I alive or just dead?
I've been stumbling in the dark
Living in a crash world
Hush, Don't say one more word
At this point the truth seems absurb
'Cause who we were is gone forever
Crushed, Underneath our fears
Everything's so twisted and weird
Someone, save me, I can't seem to break free
[chorus]
Go on, get out of my head
I'm on the wrong side of a parallel universe
Am I alive or just dead?
I've been stumbling in the dark
Living in a crash world
Slow motion, Devastation
Should of seen it coming but I couldn't do nothin'
Emotion, Desperation
Someone save me, I can't seem to break free
[chorus] 2x
Go on, get out of my head
I'm on the wrong side of a parallel universe
Am I alive or just dead?
I've been stumbling in the dark
Living in a crash world
Crash World, yeah...

Till Then

Stock/aitken/waterman
I've been away for such a long time
Every day i miss you
All those long and lonely nights
Counting the hours till i'm with you
Till then
I'll keep holding on
Praying i'm not wrong
Hoping that our love is still strong
(till then)
Keep our love alive
Hope you're satisfied
Till you're right here by my side
And the hands on the clock
Going round and round and round
But time don't seem to be moving at all
Every minute you were on my mind
Every day i wrote you
Half of me is lost in time
Half of me is always with you
Till then
I'll keep holding on
Praying i'm not wrong
Hoping that our love is still strong
(till then)
Keep our love alive
Hope you're satisfied
Till you're right here by my side
And the hands on the clock
Going round and round and round
But time don't seem to be moving at all
Another ticket for another trip
To another destination (destination)
It's just the thought of you that keeps me strong
Moving in the right direction
(choruses to fade)

I have a habit of comparing the phraseology of communiqus, one with another across the years, and noting a certain similarity of words, a certain similarity of optimism in the reports which followed the summit meetings and a certain similarity in the lack of practical results during the ensuing years.

Till Then (Time Stands Still)

I've been away for such a long time
Every day I miss you
All those long and lonely nights
Counting the hours till I'm with you

Is There A Difference?

Is there a difference between yes and no
Is there a difference between up and down
Must I fear what others fear
What nonsense
Some people are content
Enjoying things that belong to tradition
With the seasons they cast their lot
Without a question
Other men are clear and bright and solid
Other men are sharp and clever and jolly
And we go wo oh oh wo oh oh oh wo
Is there a difference between high and low
Is there a difference between then and now
Do we have to live in pain and fear
What nonsense
People are drifting like the waves on the sea
Without direction like the restless wind
Not knowing forward not knowing back
Just existing
Other men are strong and full of courage
Other men are witty and full of knowledge
And we go wo oh oh wo oh oh wo
Other men are clear and bright and solid
I alone am drifting on the sea
Other men are sharp and clever and jolly
Restless like the wind
And we go wo oh oh wo oh oh wo
Is there a difference
Is there really a difference
Yes and no
Is there a difference
Up and down
Is there a difference
High and low
Is there a difference
Then and now
Is there a difference
Yes and no
Is there a difference
Up and down
Is there a difference

What is the difference between....?

What is the difference between black and white?
What is the difference between day and night?
What is the difference between love and hate?
What is the difference between a woman and a mate?
The answers seem to be so easy
as the difference between to be free and to be busy.
But! Can you tell me the difference between a lie and a truth?
Can you tell me the difference between old age and youth?
Will you tell me the difference between a grant and a sob?
If you don’t know this difference you can flop.
I would like to know the difference between wrong and right,
I would like to know the difference between a war and a fight.
If you know the answers please, write.
It will be interesting to know your opinion,
And may be I will find it to be brilliant.

Got To Be Moving On

Sombody told me - there's something better down that way
So don't try to hold me - 'Cos it's all I got to say
Is can't stay
I got to be moving - I got to be moving on
Yeah I got to moving - I got to be moving on
Next time you look around - you may find me gone
I've got to be moving - moving on
Free - nothing can hold me down
What you're loving - is what you found
So don't try to change it
Oh free - I've got to keep moving on
Where ever it takes me - where ever it goes
Somebody told me - there's something better down that way
So don't try to hold me - 'Cos it's all I got to say
Is can't stay
Got to be moving - got to be moving on
Got to be moving - got to be moving on
WHenever you see me - you'll know me by this song
Yeah I - I got to be moving on
Moving on

Peace is not unity in similarity but unity in diversity, in the comparison and conciliation of differences. And, ideally, peace means the absence of violence. It is an ethical value.

When The Lights Go Out

When the lights go out
Everybody has fun
When the lights go out
Everybody runs to a safe place
When the lights go out
Everybodys afraid
When the lights go out
Everybody starts to pray
Starts to pray
Monsters & madmen
All come alive
When the dead start walking
Theres no place to hide
Theres no place to hide
Chorus
Hey--lets turn the night into day
Lets start a fire in an alley way
Lets all go crazy by & by
And lets all pray to the cats eye
No one can be trusted, when the lights go out
People act real crazy, people start to shout
People huddle together, try and hide their fear
People party down by they aint goin nowhere
They aint goin nowhere
Gonna run outside
Whats there to see
Just one big shadow there to comfort me
There to comfort me . . . there to comfort me
Chorus
Just common folks like you and me
Turn into mobs that get so crazy
Prowl the streets like cats
Out for the hunt
Breaking all the windows just because its fun
Just because its fun, just because its fun

Turn The Light Down

Turn the lights on the night is too long
Keep yourself warm I'm coming home
I cannot help you, you yourself must see
Decide now on what you want to be
Turn the lights down
The lights are too strong
When you're down and out just hold on
Realize that nothing lasts long
We must believe in things we cannot see
Everything's alright with me
Turn the lights down
The lights are too strong
I'm coming home
I just want to sleep by your side
It makes me feel so alive
I just want to sleep for a while
Turn around the night is still young
Keep your lights on
I'm coming home
You must decide now where you want to be
You're the one who said to me
Realize that nothing lasts long
I'm coming home
I just want to sleep by your side
It makes me feel so alive
So easy to look at the (??)
Hard to (??) when you care
Impossible now to go back to where we began
I just want to sleep by your side
It makes me feel so alive
I just want to sleep by your side
I just want to sleep through the night

The World Movement

The world is keep moving
It is moving when seen
But the direction is unpredictable
It keep moving though unseen
Flowing its own rhythm
Though already do something
The unseen hand is running different way
Though try to stand still
The walking feet is marching as fast as wind
The world is keep moving
From one place to another
Never tired, never rest
The world is keep moving
Moving unstoppable
Grinding those who can’t swim, stubborn and arrogant one

Example moves the world more than doctrine. The great exemplars are the poets of action, and it makes little difference whether they be forces for good or forces for evil.

Two Roads

Two roads have gone
To the same direction:
One is full of stone
With two parallel bars of iron
Where I've never ridden on.

Other is carpeted by stone
And full of busy horn
Where competition is common.
Through this one I've gone
To my direction.

Many a person has held close, throughout their entire lives, two friends that always remained strange to one another, because one of them attracted by virtue of similarity, the other by difference.

Be To You, True

Be to you,
True.
With a doing of you,
No one but you can do to be.

When you make attempts to be me,
Or anyone else you imitate and see.
With beliefs they should be like you,
Or you like them.
There will be left only one of us,
Feeling blessed to be that best person yet...
One can become to be.
With a comfort felt within the skin.
And a caring of less who may protest.
Or a passing of judgement to critique and profess.

Be to you,
True.
With a doing of you,
No one but you can do to be.

And no one will have to guess,
Who it is that you are...
When you have confirmed the placement,
Of your forward moving steps.

Be to you true!
That is all you have to do.
And those pieces you seek to put together,
Will for you need no comparison done of substitutes.

The Comfort of Familiarity

The comfort of familiarity,
Should not give some license
To disrespect openly!
Or disregard others living lives,
As they choose their lives to be.
Who gave who rights to be the mortgagor
And the mortgagee of this 'property'!

The comfort of familiarity,
Imposes on those with opinions expressed.
To feel accepted by a few,
Many drool to impress.
Dressed they seek with pretentions shown,
Just to be suppressed by intentions known!

The comfort of familiarity...
Looks for similarity to address!
To produce annoying conflicts enjoyed,
By those addicted to live with unrest!
Instead of encouraging themselves...
To live no less than their best!
