Analysis of Some secret or something divine

Sam.my 2000



How does music make me feel happy and sad at the same time?
As if it has something to tell me, some secret or something divine.

How is a musician with just the power of his sound,
able to create his entire new imaginary world around?
Music makes you feel like beggar with no food in his hand,
Or some kind of a king who rules this entire piece of land
Music wakes you up and makes you put up another fight,
It also gives you the wisdom to differentiate between wrong and the right.

It makes you feel like there´s nothing quite like love,
Neither down in hell, nor in heavens above.
Music seems to have the power to ease the pain,
It is sometimes the only thing keeping you from going insane.
Music makes you go through life, childhood, old age, and death,
It somehow also conveys pride, joy, grief, and regret.

Music does make me feel happy and sad at the same time,
Maybe it has something to tell me, some secret or something divine.
