The life we lead

«"The slicked-back-haired men were soliciting,
and often,
in the life we lead,
it's about fleeing
when you want to be
rather than appearances.

It is by appearing
that we lie to ourselves
gradually.

There wasn't really anything left.
to think
that the heart
was common.

Life is hard out there.,
filled with gold
and money.

People
who go to bed
without even knowing how to sleep anymore.

But how beautiful they are!,
the gilding of artifice.

It looks flashy.

And all we have to do is watch
its reflection
to get drunk.

Was that all there was to it?
It was quite empty, though.

Then in my loop
the opposite meaning,
I didn't really know anymore
what I should be thinking about
so that the taste of life
"It never ends."»
