Good day / Bad day



The landscape changed
The train didn’t seem to go
The way I had arranged

In my mind it had derailed
Flowed into a dream land
of hills and beaches
Fresh rills and green beeches stand
Sziget Szent Miklos
I understand now is not Csepel
Just as HEV 6 is not the same as HEV 7
One track leads to heaven
The other rail goes to hell

If it can be right that my mistake
Be made by mortal hands
The logic I forsake
When I chose to walk not stand
Without my bicycle
I am confined to these iron wheels
That roll in undeniable locomotion
Circumventing paradise
The devil took control
And wielded his mighty sword
Cut through Kis vagoshid’s soil
Cleaved a mighty chasm
The place that I did fall
And yet the Csepel Angels
Came to my fallen call
Carried me on wings of steel
Back upon the pilgrim’s road
Now I feel my world is real
That I am missing my heavy load

My heart evacuated the devil
From its grip
The witch let go her talon hold
Upon my earthly trip
And I am a freeman at last
To live no more a slave
In this poor country of consequences
Their past decisions proved too grave
