01. WHEN I GO OFF TRACK
All the lights are low after the tour
The last song that I get to share with my faded voice.
Packing my things to leave the show
Who will I be tomorrow?Voice is having more cracks than usual
Wearing plain shirts, pretty casual
That fuse in my eyes are no longer here
When no one's around, I'll be under your care.When I go off the beat,
When I release a single note that's far from the tune
When I go off track and pretty old
One question is enough
"Will you be here to save the night?"When my hands can't write a single lyric
As my smiles become all hesitated,
As the cheers for my name suddenly degrade
Will you remember me the better way?Lights turned down as I sink here in the sand
People forget my songs, my voice and lost their fond
People love me until they find somebody else
Fulfilled enough before I rest.Now kid don't screw up, yet plan to be remembered
Be a value for success is nothing in this world
Lights are temporary, doors may close
But to settle down with who you love is not a curse.
Who you share your last seconds matter
For your story ends with their farewell and your stutter.
Let me die in peace with him coz he made me live
A second life far from all the judgments and fears
Coz when I go off track, he still listened.*****
Words from the poet:
I used to fear what's going to happen in the future. Back when I was a kid, it became really hard for me to dream a certain profession due to the fact that I'm scared what's going to happen next after I achieved what I want to become. This is what this poem is about. I would like to shortly explain myself after each poem so I won't be misinterpreted or misunderstood and also for people to understand each poem.
