Indigo Child
2005
They’ll check my wrist and I’ll faint a pulse,
I’m not the one you thought I was, when the drapery falls
Their holiest water let me drown,
when his castrating kisses dragged me down
And tomorrow they’ll forget my frown and what I spoke halfdead
but I have never left, cause this has been in my head:
i) One of the Others
Have I become one of the others? has it already begun?
A new generation that cares and bothers
I know now what Ive become
We sacrifice our herbs and liquor to lubricate the lovers
I run to stun to wonder what I have become?
All my sin and repentance are smothered
Cause the Era “Revolta” has begun
ii) How it started to end
And you wont bring us to our knees
with lullabies about the daily grind
“Theres no light after sinful decease”
oh how can you be so blind?
And you might realize one ludicrous day
the throne youve served has long been dead
to whom will you pray, and whom will you betray
but yourself, if it all was only in your head?
And on this deceitful day, you will start to remember
how it all started to end
me and my family needed a home in December
but you were not our friend.
ii) The Others– Field Works
They lift their hands and pray
to the God and to the self
their lax limbs shake and sway
put worries on a shelf
and just wait another day
to find a remedy for wealth
Remedy for blisters from the violent thief
who took away their beating hearts
blisters turned blue, yellow and green,
when the holy books were torn apart
Theyre distant to the daily grief,
but escaping it is not hard
So here Ill have me a drink,
cigars and pot, thats what they smoke
I wont let this lifeboat leak nor sink
wont let our future choke
on what the human race thinks
is nothing but a joke
We walk outside the safe, even path
to mark the truth of our words with blood
We endow them rebellion and they bestow wrath
and drag our halos through the mud
but theyll scald their skin trying to take a bath
in the magnanimous glory of God
iv) Save Our Souls
SOS, “Blasphemy”, Im cursed
now dont ask me why, my dear
youre just gonna make it even worse
the wrath, the woe, the fear
Dont you want me to stay with you
dont you want me to live?
Now I have nothing but words for you
but isnt that enough to give?
Save me now from the pack of wolves
that will tear the muzzled lamb
ungagg me now if you dont wanna fool
the truly innocent ones condemned
SOS, Death Penalty, and off to hell with me
they said therell be no ransom for liars
But I scaled the truth, they were afraid to see
I did nothing but poke the fire
v) We must die
“Death penalty to all the others, cause theyre spooky and wild”
oh and i thought wed die with dignity, my little indigo child
My last will is modest, Im mute and humble,
before Ill die on a rope after a random stumble:
Let all the children dream and sing, let all the mothers cry,
we must end this tragedy, and martyrs have to die!
