FLOWER

Spoiler:

I closed my eyes and what came to me
was the path we've taken so far
Very soon the flowers will bloom
We used to look forward to that back then

You were smiling so gently
Where did you go?

I want to become a flower, grow thorns, wither, fall and rot away
Don't pick me up. Leave me, forget me
I want to turn into rain and fog. I want to stay damp
I lie down, sleepily. Leave me be

In the home town we left behind,
that’s where we walked with interlaced fingers
When I look back now,
we really did spend happy days there

You led me by the hand
Your warmth still remains

Don’t hesitate. If you’re going to do it, deliver the final blow and end me
Don’t smile. Those cold eyes cannot lie
I want to become a bird, catch the wind and go to that place
Beyond that, no sorrow, no love

You were smiling so gently
Where did you go?

I want to become a flower, grow thorns, wither, fall and rot away
Don't pick me up. Leave me, forget me
Don’t hesitate. If you’re going to do it, deliver the final blow and end me
Don’t smile. Those cold eyes cannot lie

Mad World

Spoiler:

If trees could talk
What would they accuse us of?
We brutally cut them down
We let them lie on the brink of death

In this endless stupidity
The money gods smile

Hey, tell me, if that were you?
How would you feel?
Hey, tell me, if that was me
Would you cry?
I don't know if there is
Anybody who would speak the truth

If the wind could talk
What would it accuse us of?
This color, this smell,
Contamination without any precedent

In this endless arrogance
The money gods smile

Hey, tell me, if that were you?
How would you live in these times?
Hey, tell me. I'm so
Disgusted by these times
I'm doing something
For real, what should I do?

If it is only me
Standing up for this,
it is meaningless
Perhaps there is someone unknown
Already waiting ahead?

Hey, tell me, if that were you?
How would you feel?
Hey, tell me, if that was me
Would you cry?
I don't know if there is
anybody who would speak the truth

Hey, tell me, if that were you
How would you live in these times?
Hey, tell me. I am so
Disgusted by these times
I am doing something
For real, what should I do?

Winter diary

Spoiler:

It's still going on; I've been writing about it all the time
A diary from my heart
The more nights we can't meet, the more
important it becomes to smile when we can get together

Cast a spell on this pure white snow
Now is the time to say all the words I could not say
Would you like to hear them?
Blame it on the white snowy season
Let me be by your side
Like that summer

We agreed to stay friends, to stay like this forever
and parted ways that day
How long will we keep taking a step back
whenever we’ve taken a step to close the distance?

I'm sure you won't come anymore
I wonder if I will be still waiting alone
at our secret place?
Even so, you are still my beloved
The two of us are forever together
in this diary
