kite

u2 sarkisi;

something is about to give
i can feel it coming
i think i know what it is
i’m not afraid to die
i’m not afraid to live
and when i’m flat on my back
i hope to feel like i did
’cause hardness, it sets in
you need some protection
the thinner the skin
i want you to know
that you don’t need me anymore
i want you to know
you don’t need anyone, anything at all

who’s to say where the wind will take you
who’s to say what it is will break you
i don’t know which way the wind will blow
who’s to know when the time has come around
don’t wanna see you cry
i know this is not goodbye

in summer i can taste the salt in the sea
there’s a kite blowing out of control on a breeze
i wonder what’s gonna happen to you
you wonder what has happened to me
i’m a man, i’m not a child
a man who sees the shadow behind your eyes

who’s to say where the wind will take you
who’s to say what it is will break you
i don’t know where the wind will blow
who’s to know when the time has come around
i don’t wanna see you cry
i know that this is not goodbye

did i waste it
not so much i couldn’t taste it
life should be fragrant
rooftop to the basement
the last of the rockstars
when hip-hop drove the big cars
in the time when new media
was the big idea
that was the big idea
