Μεταξύ μας...

We are secrets to each other
Each one's life a novel
No-one else has read.
Even joined in bonds of love,
We're linked to one another
By such slender threads.

We are planets to each other,
Drifting in our orbits
To a brief eclipse.
Each of us a world apart,
Alone and yet together,
Like two passing ships.

Just between us,
I think it's time for us to recognize
The differences we sometimes fear to show.
Just between us,
I think it's time for us to realize,
The spaces in between
Leave room for you and I to grow.

We are strangers to each other,
Full of sliding panels,
An illusion show.
Acting well-rehearsed routines
Or playing from the heart?
It's hard for one to know.

We are islands to each other,
Building hopeful bridges
On a troubled sea.
Some are burned or swept away,
Some we would not choose,
But we're not always free.

Κάποιες πικρές (;) αλήθειες για τις ανθρώπινες σχέσεις. Πιστεύω πως όλα καταλήγουν στους παραπάνω στίχους του μεγάλου Neil Peart. Το τραγούδι είναι το Entre nous και βρίσκεται στο αριστουργηματικό Permanent waves του 1980. Αφιερωμένο σε όσους επιμένουν να τρέφουν αυταπάτες. Ξέχασα να αναφέρω το συγκρότημα αλλά αν δεν το γνωρίζετε να ξανάρθετε με τον κηδεμόνα σας. Καλό καλοκαίρι σε όλους!
