| Another Day
| | Ich Bin Wahrlich Der Narrenkönig |
Another genious band is Schandmaul. Their best song, in my eyes (ears?), is Der Hofnarr. The lyrics are pure genious.
Possen reissend, Witze machend, ich so manches Herz erfreu.
Den Ball jonglierend, Feuer spuckend, unterhalte ich die Leut'
des Hofes - König, Königin und ihre zarte Tochter,
weil ich der Narr des Hofes bin, ein Clown ein Ausgekochter.
Das Kind des Königspaares ist es, welches mir den Kopf verdreht.
Bin schwer verwirrt, wenn ich ihr Antlitz, ihre Schönheit, Anmut seh'.
So kam es, dass ich - obwohl ich vom Stande lange nicht berechtigt war -
um ihre Hand anhielt, beim König vorsprach - bin der Narr.
"Meine Tochter willst du, Narr, wenn Herrrscher würden alles geben?
Sei König, mit Gold, Land und Volk, dann sollst du mit ihr leben."
Ich bin der Narrenkönig - König aller Narren bin ich wohl!
Mein Volk die Menschen, die gern lachen und mein Gold mir innewohnt!
Mein Land ist doch die ganze Welt - wer denn könnte ihr mehr geben?
Gib' mir deine Tochter, Meister, soll fortan glücklich leben!
Ich bin der Narrenkönig - der Narrenkönig bin ich wohl!
Der König, nein, das ganze Volke lachte ob der dreisten Tat.
"Seht, der Narr will König sein!" Ich war Gespött im ganzen Staat.
So zog ich fort mit schwerem Herzen, fort von Schloss und Heimatstadt.
Nur ein Mensch winkte traurig meiner als ich ritt ins Tal hinab.
So ritt ich hier hin, reiste dorthin, blies mit Trübsal mir den Marsch,
bis ich hört' des Königs Botschaft, welche verbreitete sich rasch:
"Die liebst Prinzessin ist verfallen gar fürchterlicher Depression,
Wer eilt und sie zum Lachen bringt, der soll sie zum Weibe holen."
So will ich denn mein Glück versuchen, wenn nicht Narr, wer könnt es dann?
Gesagt getan, so stand ich vor ihr und mein Lied begann:
Ich bin der Narrenkönig - König aller Narren bin ich wohl!
Mein Volk die Menschen, die gern lachen und mein Gold mir innewohnt!
Mein Land ist doch die ganze Welt - wer denn könnte ihr mehr geben?
Gib' mir deine Tochter, Meister, soll fortan glücklich leben!
Ich bin der Narrenkönig - der Narrenkönig bin ich wohl!
So gab ich alles was ich kannt', spielte mein ganzes Repertoire
und sie lachte, jeder lachte, das ganze Land am Lachen war!
Auch der König must' gestehen, dass ich die Beste Medizin
für seine liebe Tochter - ich der Narrenkönig bin.

So, I'm awake. I'm making noodles, woked kimchi noodles to be precise. I love kimchi! It's a Korean cabbage thing, with like lactic acid and ginger. I love cabbage... And noodles! And I'm listening to Coldplay. Not because I'm sad but because their music is so damn good. I feel like pancakes!! With syrup.. Or blueberry jam! And like... Ice cream! And potato chips... And... Yeah. thats basically it. I haven't eaten in about 24hrs so I'd eat anything. No one's logged in or anything and oh my gawd those noodles are good... I'm going to eat now...
So. My tummy hurts a bit. And I still have the other half of the noodles left. I found some chocolate. Like, just a little bit. Sooo tasty. I've got a cup of tea too. And my mom gave me a white/pink shirt. Guess the chocolate's hers too. | |

So. Somewhat; problem aborted. Methinks. I'm in love. p.q

Mahaha, guess it's just a crush.
But I miss the person.

Hello people. So this is freaky.
i didn't know my best friend thought we weren't friends any more.
Who am i kidding btw. No one but her is going to read this.
A while ago, I saw Shiver by Coldplay as the song of my life.
I changed my mind, as I thought my relationship with her was better.
Now I can't stop listening to it.
Fuck.

| I wrote a really long entry last morning/evening/night, but then i forgot it and turned off my computer. So that's for that. Not that you care. After hours of looking on the internet, I stumbled upon the keyboard preferences, so now I can write in 5000 alphabets of which I understand barely any. | |
|
| | °o__O° |
Haha...That last entry...Yeah...As if...I'm just going to go on living life my own way.
Pfft. As if I'd ever actually do those things...
Hahaha............................. ......
6 hours later...O___o
MIYAVI!!!! <33333 omg...

Shiver is the official anthem of my life at the moment. And yes, I'm cocopuff...
I was thinking some more and realized that adapting really is the best.
At least everyone else will be happy, and I won't have to worry.
After all, how many times have I not said I live for my friends?
So I could just as well contribute this life to them.
Werther or not they'll accept it is a totally different question.
Oh my god I love Coldplay. They're one of the best bands in the world.
"You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people,
than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you."

I'm not sure I miss my old life but I know I'm looking forward to see the future. Things change, mostly for the worse. I'm too lazy to do anything or care about it,
but I think about those days I've lost due to my shortcomings, and maybe those of my friends.
But I can't blame anyone else. And especially not my friends. For it is for them that I have stayed.
No one is perfect. We differ from each other, did we not, could we not exist. At least not coexist. These things, where we differ, they can make life and relations hard for us. And we all change too.
If we didn't, we'd be keeping our faults for the rest of our lives.
That is, assuming we have any, at the time we stop changing.
Assuming then, that we can stop changing. It's in the human nature to change ourselves and everything and everyone else. We prefere to change other things to fit our perfect little world where we rule and others follow. Or maybe you have a diferent perfect world.
Thinking about it, in my perfect world, I wouldn't rule, but rather sit by.
I would have no use for ruling anyway. But now, as I live my life in this one world, I have a choice. Make my own perfect world, or live in that of others.
How then do I know what is my perfect world? I don't. I have no idea.
Or well. It might be one where I have achieved total enlightenment. But the path there is not one which my will power could endure.
It could be simply living my life alongside my friends,
but I know sooner or later I will disappoint them, again.
I change too much, I think. I adapt to peoples wishes and their perfect worlds.
And neither they, nor I, know what that perfect world is. Hence, I stagger along in their trails.
There are, ofcourse, people I don't want to be like.
Confucius once said:
"When you see a good man, try to emulate his example,
and when you see a bad man, search yourself for his faults."
I try to do that, and I do it a lot, I do nothing but it. I have a friend,
he says I adhere to much to other people's wishes. He said, when I told him I wasn't going to do pot cos my friend didn't want me to, that I was a sissy, that I was stupid, and so on.
Screw him I don't need drugs. Don't ·need·, but don't dislike in any way.
I know people who do, and i can't understand why. But I respect that. Seems some people hate drugs more then they like me. Okay. Fine. I like them ore then I like drugs, so I'll adapt.
What was my old self?
I don't know.
What is my current self?
I don't know.
What will my future self be?
I don't know.
Will I ever know? I have been thinking of recording my different periods of..things.
Like, what kind of music I listen to at times, how my life is going, and so on.
Actually, I'm going to do that now, on a stickie.
an hour or two later
I like talking about philosophy, I like thinking about life.
Does that make me a philosopher, or simply human?

| | woah |
Ive read Tao Te King. I felt like I had found something perfect for me. Then I read Chuang Tzu. It ruined it all. It sounds just like the Cultural Revolution all over again; and thats porboably because the Cultural Revolution was based around the concept of Tao and the texts of Chuang Tzu. I could give up on some of the good things of life and so on, but the concept of completely eradicating art, music, and so on from the face of the earth seems quite distant to me. I know, that one does not need them to live, rather the contrary that they make living harder. But to give up on them completely seems so silly... I'm quite sure that Lao Tzu said somewhere that it isn't good to be an ascetic, and I know that he said that one should take everything in moderation. So why not also music and art? Why exclude them from our lives?
Sorry if you dont understand a word I'm saying, I barely do either. | |

| | | The wind that shakes the barley |
I sat within the valley green
I sat me with my true love.
My sad heart strove the two between
The old love and the new love.
The old for her the new
That made me think on Ireland dearly.
While soft the wind blew down the glade
and shook the golden barley.
T'was hard the woeful words to frame
To break the ties that bound us.
But harder still to bear the shame
of foreign chains around us.
And so I said the mountain glen
I'll meet at morning early.
And I'll join the bold united men
While soft winds shook the barley.
T'was sad I kissed away her tears
My fond arm round her flinging.
When a foe, man's shot burst on our ears
>From out the wild woods ringing.
A bullet pierced my true love's side
In live's young spring so early.
And on my breast in blood she died
While soft winds shook the barley.
But blood for blood without remorse
I've ta'en at oulart hollow.
I've lain my true love's clay like corpse
Where I full soon must follow.
Around her grave I've wandered drear
Noon, night, and morning early.
With breaking heart when e'er I hear
The wind that shakes the barley
And no, t'is not by me. | |
