Edgar

Edgar is a commonly used English given name, from an Anglo-Saxon name Eadgar (composed of ead "rich, prosperous" and gar "spear"). Like most Anglo-Saxon names, it fell out of use by the later medieval period; it was, however, revived in the 18th century, and was popularised by its use for a character in Sir Walter Scott's The Bride of Lammermoor (1819). more »

Some might call me strange 
Or be in an uproar by my humour 
Some may hate my brasin soul 
I cannot help this 
This is the way I was born 

And some may call me 
At 2 AM - at two in the morning 
Because they know 
I will always pick up the phone 
And sit with them 

We should all stick to the second 
Kind of person 

Walking on eggshells around you 
My serene serotonin waterlily queen 
I am still in my body, shaking within 

I am restless, sleeping like a lion 
Or a koala bear 
I can't concentrate, I can't read 
I must move, move away 

Change the bedding 
Buy some fresh flowers 
Vacuum and dust 
Or something i don't know 

Just, please, let me play my music 
I can be still in body 
But inside of it, there roam restless galaxies 
Waiting to explode 
While these neon orange pills make me want to implode 

Forgive me, forgive me 
I shall be still, a good worker 
A good person, a good boy 
I cannot rest even when asleep 
And I cannot cry even if I weep 

I have to start doing what's best for me 
I just don't know what that is yet 

I never knew until now 
How much sorrow 
There could be 
In waiting for knowing 
If there'll be another morrow 

Today I live as though 
I will never sing or dance again 
Today is the day 
That all my power has returned to me 
And informed me of who I've always been 
A vessel 

Pearl grey eyes forever blue 
Sunken, sad and tired 
They call out for them 

Oh, when all this darkness 
Passes into morning 
Oh how I wish to see 
All the blue and green 

The bluest skies ever 
And the nicest shoreless land you've ever seen 
The greenest grass that Earth could give us 
That is all I ask for 

As it passes - all of this 
The last lakes will still remember us 
As will the golden dandelions 
Let us welcome them as well 

This is where we are 
Where we've begun and ended up 
We did this to ourselves 
We no longer have a normal state 
A ruler, a measure or a commandment 
We are fluid, free and we wear no labels 
We are capable of anything, absurd abstract or real and robust 
We come in peace, but with a hot vengence 
For what you've done to our fragile youth 
Our bodies are canvases 
Our faces are broken masks 
Free of any need to hide the truth 
We are the truth 
We are living in a liquid time 
In solidarity 

I am a toy 
Broken on the inside 
Forever unmendable 
Aren't we all? 

No. we are not all 
Hard and metal and crude 
Some of us, it is true 
Are soft, kind and true 

They say toys have more fun 
If anyone ever tells you this, run 

We all break and we all fix 
Bandage and medication 
Toys are always happy 
Outside
