It
was first music video my mother got from a friend.
Girls
band singing, dancing.
I
didn't understand a word, it was in English.
I
thought may be they were saying:
Life
is not what you see,
Life
is what you dream.
I
had never seen so much clothes, so much shoes.
We
had nothing close, nothing to chose.
For
me that song, the girls, music,
Became
freedom knocking my door:
Life
is not what you see,
Life
is what you dream.
Lines
in the unemployment office,
No
more Soviet Union.
We
had no idea what to do.
Parents
are busy, nowhere to go after school.
Hiding
in the old empty building,
School
bags on the floor.
Cheap
vodka, cigarettes, sprays, glue.
A
boy is asking me to drink:
Try
and you will see real things.
I
tried only one time,
Because
that evening
The
girls band was singing on our dirty street.
They
were singing only for me:
Life
is not what you see.
***
After
many times, after many days,
After
perfect and not so perfect ways.
I
believe in love,
I
believe myself.
I
believe that every day is a perfect day.
Never
give up hope,
Never
run away.
Make
your everyday be a perfect day.
***
One
of the most important things we have
Is
our open wings.
How
many times we touch the ground,
The
wings will bring us up.
Our
dreams, love, desire, believe, passion,
People
who truly care and never let us go down.
They
are our open wings
***
Once
upon time,
Once
upon dream
On
the empty road,
Walking
trough storm,
Rain,
cold wind.
They
had no idea what to do next.
Not
until heard word "Go".
