Día del peluche...

All the smiles in my mind
All of you're far away
All your love's in my heart.

You, alone in a tower.
You, dancing on a beach.
You, caressing a pearl.
You, harmless and fair.

And me.
I am still here.

La mentira

Es mentira que haya un solo camino a seguir en la vida. Aun así, me he empeñado en convencerme de que estoy tomando ese camino correcto y finjo que sé lo que estoy haciendo.

THIS IS A LIE

HOW EACH OF US DECIDES
I'VE NEVER BEEN SURE
THE PART WE PLAY THE WAY WE ARE
HOW EACH OF US DENIES ANY OTHER WAY IN THE WORLD
WHY EACH OF US MUST CHOOSE
I'VE NEVER UNDERSTOOD
ONE SPECIAL FRIEND ONE TRUE LOVE
WHY EACH OF US MUST LOSE EVERYONE ELSE IN THE WORLD

HOWEVER UNSURE HOWEVER UNWISE
DAY AFTER DAY PLAY OUT OUR LIVES
HOWEVER CONFUSED
PRETENDING TO KNOW TO THE END

BUT THIS ISN'T TRUTH THIS ISN'T RIGHT
THIS ISN'T LOVE THIS ISN'T LIFE THIS ISN'T REAL
THIS IS A LIE

HOW EACH OF US BELIEVES
I'VE NEVER REALLY KNOWN
IN HEAVEN UNSEEN AND HELL UNKNOWN
HOW EACH OF US DREAMS TO UNDERSTAND ANYTHING AT ALL
WHY EACH OF US DECIDES
I'VE NEVER BEEN SURE
THE PART WE TAKE THE WAY WE ARE
WHY EACH OF US DENIES EVERY OTHER WAY IN THE WORLD

HOWEVER UNSURE HOWEVER UNWISE
DAY AFTER DAY PLAY OUT OUR LIVES
HOWEVER CONFUSED
PRETENDING TO KNOW TO THE END

BUT THIS ISN'T TRUTH THIS ISN'T RIGHT
THIS ISN'T LOVE THIS ISN'T LIFE THIS ISN'T REAL THIS IS A LIE
THIS ISN'T TRUTH THIS ISN'T RIGHT
THIS ISN'T LOVE THIS ISN'T LIFE THIS ISN'T REAL
THIS IS A LIE
--Robert Smith, 1996

Uno escoge a una persona, un amor, una profesión, una creencia, una actitud... y al hacerlo se niega uno a todas las demás personas y cosas del mundo.

Es una reflexión tortuosa.

Sin embargo uno debe decidir y vivir, aunque no es cierto que uno pueda llegar a decir que sabe realmente lo que está haciendo.
