How Can We?


all these empty faces

burning in my heart

all these dusty shapes

of madness in my world

we want to do it better

don't know when to start

how can we be soldiers

how can we be so cruel

how can we be strangers

and in the same time

be so lonely too

how can we be lovers

and in the same time

drain our hearts from fuel

how can we be human

and so loathsome too

how can you kill a brother

he's lonesome like you

how can we be so cruel

how can we be human

and so loathsome too

all these naked children

my eyes are turning blind

all these conditions

of hatred in my world

can we do it better

will we care and start to mind

The Fortune


the rain is pouring in my heart

the water ends as clay

a baby cries without a sound . . .

and all the love that's gone astray

it slowly falls apart

and roses that we kissed today

are dying in despair

the dawn is hiding in my mind

the sunshine turns away

a songbird sings without a voice . . .

and those who have a thing to say

are forced into rewind

where's the clue and the core

where's the saint and the king

where's the fortune of war

and the peace it should bring

the wind is blowing in my hair

the blue sky seems so gray

a soldier lives without a life . . .

and roses that we kissed today

are dying in despair

where's the clue and the core

where's the saint and the king

where's the lives from before

and the song we would sing

where's the fortune of war

and the peace it should bring
