New York Fireworks
New York Fireworks
I didn't see anything
Yet everything was there
Before my eyes
Behind my tears
A great firework
took everything away
suddenly
Giving way to the crowd
of the great days
carried away by the smile
of an infinite sky on the rails
of human despair
A great bonfire
has carried everything away
suddenly
Giving way to joyless cries
Thunders of lightning
Under a stifling heat
And a grey sky
Before a downpour of water
On an ocean of misery
Shared in all humanity
