She sang Lili Marlene.
In front of the barracks, in front of the big gate
There's a lantern and it's still in front of it
We want to see each other there againWe want to stand by the lantern
Like before, Lili MarleneLike before, Lili Marlene
Our two shadows looked like one
You could see straight away that we loved each other
And everyone should see itWhen we stand by the lanternLike before, Lili MarleneLike before, Lili Marlene
She knows your steps, your beautiful walk
She burns every evening, but she forgot me for a long time
And should harm happen to meWho will stand by the lanternWith you, Lili Marlene?With you, Lili Marlene?
From the silent space from the ground of the earth
Your loving mouth lifts as if in a dreamWhen the late mists turnWho will stand by the lantern?With you, Lili Marlene?With you, Lili Marlene?
When the late mists turn
Who will stand by the lantern?
With you, Lili Marlene?With you, Lili Marlene?
r. stayed with t. for several hours yesterday until dinner time, and someone asked her where she's from. she doesn't know.some thought she was moving in a week ago, others didn't know when. one guy came in and said oh, i thought this room was vacant. somebody contacted k. in l.a. as the contact person for t. they did put blinds in after the move-in. maybe they'll put a shower curtain in today. it's not particular to any place, it's the whole of society in breakdown. we just have to keep our wits if possible and make the best of it.
she remembers her cats when she was 11. she had to leave them behind. she cries. she remembers some things she can't forget.
