Ruby - Astari Boedikoentjara
Through my eyes I can see
you, overcome by agony
There's your wall of misery
such a painful sight as can be
but the other side of you
Another year gone by
left without questions why
The same old rituals
the familiar matters
The same old, mundane conversation
Advice?
More of them?
Truth or lies?
Should I give a damn?
I understand
Are we in the era of escalating vanity?
So many strike a pose
It’s where anything goes
Once or twice ain’t enough
There’s always that extra dose
