Pink Spider

You wrap yourself in needles and threads of lies
A small world You thought it was everything
You hurt anything that comes near
You thought the sky was a square

"this is it... this's all there is, isn't it?",
You said That's a lie too

Wildly decorated your patterns look lonely
The paradise bird unusually came over to talk

"Steal that butterfly's wings and come over here"
"Everything's to your desire on the other side"

PINK SPIDER "I wanna go there"
PINK SPIDER "I wish I had wings..."

Ignoring the captured butterfly's desperate plea
You glare at the sky
"I didn't hurt because I hated,
I didn't have wings
And the sky was too high"

"You should use my wings, SPIDER
You don't know the pain of endless flight
And maybe you'll realize one day,
That you were only flying in the palms of someone else
And even dared to call that freedom."

Couldn't fly with borrowed wings
You fall straight down head first

PINK SPIDER "It's no good"
PINK SPIDER "But I can see the sky..."
PINK SPIDER "It's a failure"
PINK SPIDER "I wish I had wings..."

Beyond that barely visible sky
Birds heading south
"Let's fly once again Cutting down these threads
This time with one's own JET
When that cloud passes..."

PINK SPIDER The sky is calling
PINK SPIDER PINK SPIDER

A pink spider flows across the sky....

Happy Belated 41st Birthday Singapore!!!

Last wednesday, 9th August 2006.... we celebrated our nation, 41st birthday. I think i'm the the few lucky guy that went to the parade for both the preview and the actual day celebration. This year celebration was also the last time the national stadium will be used before renovation starts to transform it into a sporting hub. It really brought back great memories of that stadium. I remember first time going into that stadium was the time when the likes of Fandi and Abbas won the Malaysian Cup in either 1993 or 94. I was just in primaryschool back then. I also remember watching my love, Manchester United playing against the S-League All-Star. Who can't forget Fabian Barthez playing a striking role hahaha. I was also involved in the Youth Day duty back when i was in St John Ambulance Bridage. Not to mention, seeing Singapore's captain, Aide, lifted the Tiger Cup after beating Indonesia last year. Indeed this stadium did holds alot of great memories. But there is a saying that if the old don't go, the new won't come. Every new beginning is some beginning's end. hahaha.
