Effortless Archives - Marble of Self (NaviarHaiku 427)

And I should be feeling something
But there's nothing at all
Oh be still, my heart is pumping
And I'm starting to drawl
Oh please me
Looks like I've been in a brawl
I'm going out in a blaze of gory

CHORUS
And your eyes
They're like something from the movies
And your smile
So I smiled back and kept on moving

And I couldn't choose the weapon
I couldn't think of a time
These big shoes are too big to step on
I'm too small for this crime
Oh please me
This end is no damn fault of mine
I'm going out in a blaze of gory

CHORUS

I've been told something that is nasty
And it stuck in my throat
Now you've started to look so crusty
Or is it something I smoked?
Oh please me
These are the last damn words I wrote
I'm going out in a blaze of gory

CHORUS

Going Out In A Blaze Of Gory

Majesty

Lost My Roots W/ Morten Jeamland

A song about scratches...

Here are the lyrics:

You think you 're
hard enough to 
play this game

But if you
cry someday it's 
not me the one to blame

You think you 're
fast enough but 
lifting weights

Your pace is gone
you become too slow
and no one waits

And if you feel the need
to say your sorry
Too bad my friend, it's
not the end of story

You think you 're clever
and you 've found a way
to put my tail between my 
legs and stay away

But i will tell you
there's a big mistake
the word you said was huge
and now you've got to pay

The sun is burning 
the sea is blue
heaven and hell together
hugging you
She looks like an angel 
but there's a devil inside
she really knows the way to 
make you blind

How can't you see you were
her second choice?
Well, that's the way she plays
with all the boys

And if you are the one who
scratched my car
i 'll scratch your life
no matter how far you are

Takahama Kyoshi was a Japanese poet active during the Shōwa period of Japan. He was the editor of the haiku magazine Hototogisu (previously edited by Shiki), where he promoted a more traditional style of haiku, as opposed to other popular schools which did not follow the pattern of seventeen syllables at that time.
Kyoshi also highlighted the symbolic function of the kigo (the seasonal reference), even though the more modern trends were already tending towards seasonless haiku.
