The Gray One's Diary
Poetry is the journal of the sea animal living on land, wanting to fly in the air. Poetry is a search for syllables to shoot at the barriers of the unknown and the unknowable. ~Carl Sandburg
Jupiter Jones: Still
Here's an English translation of the German lyrics of this great song:
Jupiter Jones: Still

So silent
that all of us knew
this here is forever, forever and a lifetime
and it was
so silent
that all of us sensed that
there is no word, that could ever describe this feeling
so silent
that all the clocks went mute, and time itself slowed down
so silent and so lost you went away
so silent and so lost you went away.

Chorus:
I have heard so many things,
and yet nothing came through to me
this is the reason I can't sleep at night
And even as I write a thousand songs about loss
I'll never understand why this feeling will never go away

So loud
the hours after impact when we tried
to gather the pieces and understand
and it was
so loud
that everything we thought brought only emptiness to us
so loud and so lost in this place
when silence lived with us instead of you

Chorus

So silent
even as every piece of me is missing you
and wherever you may be right now
you show me that silence has become your friend

Chorus
