i remember the fall last year
we were so defiant
we disappeared
nobody knew where we are
oh there were rumours
people always want to talk about something that takes them outside of their own lives
i guess even in our absence we were bigger then most people are, living to the full throttle
we went west. or was it south?
southwest
the desert
wide open empty space
because we felt empty
and we needed to refuel
to go some place with the absence of life
and the absence of death as well
a place where the vast expands into nothingness
everything was possible, everything was allowed
everything was ours
and people continue to talk
tell their tall tales,
theories..
what actually have been done there?
if you omit
if you refuse these necessary details
if you deny everything
well, their blame doesn’t mean anything, does it?
there was no blood on our hands
there were no bruises
there were no bodies left in the dust
even our shadows disappeared
