Tool-SOBER

I was going ouy from my choking job and got off the choking bus to get on the stifling subway train that would transport my empty body into a larger vacuum still known as the center of Santiago. I began to mentally counteract all that frightening reality to the sacred atmosphere of the Great Reserve, where I left my best memories stored. Well, I ended up in a disgusting "Starbucks" writing once all my torments, while in the background heard again and again that amazing and dark song: "Sober" from Tool, feeling like being inside of that sordid sublimely video, caught between pipes of human flesh and monsters with sad remains of unachieved dreams...

"I will find a center in you,

I will chew it up and leave,

I will work to elevate you

Just enough to bring you down ... "

I think I've become a ghost, among all these ghosts citizens.

 Search for her in the field

of your bitten dreams,

She is the poison in the years

of the forbidden winds.

Her spell needs for vice

to make it beat in your heart,

and her next soul is born in martyrdom

of the angels-owners of the reason.

 

Why is  she frightening and strange?

Why is she insensitive and inhumane?

Why it she intangible in the glare of the people?

Why should she die in the light of her sister?

Because she chose to walk

in the kingdom into oblivion,

because she was not born to love,

because she is María, the daughter of the Abyss.

 

And because she lives in the forest

of the sharpened memory,

ready to turn back

the time that has not passed

and move the hours into her favor,

save kisses in her dreams

(that today she will see achieved),

leave hugs in her flashes

and in the scented hatred.

 

María will keep on running

without knowing what is before her eyes,

and will believe hers what she goes taking

as if she was able to defeat

the heart that is dangerous,

the heart that is powerful...

It really inspires me and takes me to another land and Era.
