Where did your riches go?
All the charms you had,
To what did you owe?
Now you fly low.

Nobody is richer than yesterday,
And poorer than tomorrow.

Once you'd stand tall.
Now you grow small.
Once you'd look down.
Now you lost your crown.

I'd rather be far away than far behind.
I'd rather soar than sink.

Where did your dreams go?
All the tomorrows you had,
On what did you waste?
Now you have no taste.

Nobody has greater debt to anyone,
But than the debt to tomorrow.

Once you'd open every heart.
Now you lost your key.
Once you'd think to be smart.
Now you face the reality.

I'd rather be peace than a war.
I'd rather be a solution than a problem.

Where did your mind go?
All the games you played,
For what did you win?
Now you are losin'.

Nobody is more dead and alive than yesterday,
Farther and nearer than tomorrow.

Once you'd get everything you want.
Now you've got nothing to flaunt.
Once you'd dress for the crowd.
Now you are wearing your shroud.

I'd rather dwell in the future than the past.
I'd rather shine than rust.

Can we see each other?
Can we stand together?
This world has become so rotten.
Is there any heart left soft as cotton?

Can we hear each other?
Can we stick together?
This world has become so devastated.
Is there any moment left not wasted?

Can we talk to each other?
Can we walk together?
This world has become so abused.
Is there any mind left not confused?

Can we understand each other?
Can we dream together?
This world has become so shaken.
Is there any life left not been taken?

Can we feel each other?
Can we realize together?
This world has become so loathsome.
Is there any flower left to blossom?

Can we reach each other?
Can we achieve together?
This world has become so nasty?
Is there any act left not ******?

Can we love each other?
Can we live together?
This world has become so selfish.
Is there any nature left to cherish?

Can we trust each other?
Can we try together?
This world has become so divided.
Is there any eye left not blinded?

Can we save each other?
Can we sing together?
This world has become so unaware.
Is there any war left to declare?

Can we accept each other?
Can we grow together?
This world has become so fake.
Is there any peace left to make?

For today that have brighter tomorrows,
A better world we can create
If it's not too late...

Close now, my baby one,
Your eyes, my innocent one.
Up ahead the sun and moon,
Your time is gonna come soon.

Watch now, my child one,
Your mouth, my reckless one
Before you get to see
What is and what should never be.

Stand now, my young one,
On your feet, my free one.
Try for your deeds to be worthwhile.
For better or worse, don't forget to smile.

Show now, my ripe one,
The way, my seasoned one.
You're long past your prime
As the clock chimed bedtime.

Give life now, my forgotten one,
To faded flowers, my earth one.
Yesterday was too short a day,
Tomorrow seemed so far away...

Open your eyes wide,
We're on the same side.
Should we fall apart,
We're all still one heart.

Fight for your right
With all your might.
We are not yet quiet.

Should we have no choice,
We all are one voice.

Open your mouth wise,
We all will do likewise.
Should they **** the light,
We all still shine bright.

Break out of your cave,
Stand up and be brave.
We are not yet in the grave.

Should we have no place,
We all are one space.

Should we all claim another name,
We are all still the same,
For we all have only one aim
In this one undying flame,
In this one unjust game,
Seeking for someone to blame.

Now it only goes to show
How blind we all can be.
Thou we do think ''Not me.'',
Sometimes it's hard to see.

Can you tell the difference
Between dream and reality
When you only dwell in a possibility?

Now it only goes to show
How greedy we all can be.
Thou we do think ''Not me.'',
Sometimes it's hard to see.

Can you tell the difference
Between necessity and obligation
When you only act on your satisfaction?

Now it only goes to show
How biased we all can be.
Thou we do think ''Not me.'',
Sometimes it's hard to see.

Can you tell the difference
Between right and wrong
When you only listen to your own song?

Now it only goes to show
How reckless we all can be.
Thou we do think ''Not me.'',
Sometimes it's hard to see.

Can you tell the difference
Between awareness and indifference
When you only acknowledge your own existence.

Now it only goes to show
How lost we all can be.
Thou we do think ''Not me.'',
Sometimes it's hard to see.

Can you tell the difference
Between day and night
When you only escape from the light?..

When it comes to love,
They are nowhere near.
But when it comes to hate,
They are everywhere here.

When it comes to peace,
They are nowhere to appear.
But when it comes to war,
They are everywhere to cheer.

When it comes to good,
They are nowhere to do any.
But when it comes to evil,
They are everywhere to do many.

When it all comes to future,
They are everywhere to waste.
When it all comes to moment,
They are nowhere to taste.

When it comes to be kings and queens,
They are everywhere to crown.
But when it comes to be jugglers and jesters,
They are nowhere to clown.

When it all comes to winning,
They are everywhere to deceive.
When it all comes to losing,
They are nowhere to receive.

When it comes to death,
They are everywhere to survive.
But when it comes to life,
They are nowhere to be alive.

When it comes to taking,
They are everywhere to have it all.
But when it comes to giving,
They are nowhere to share anything at all.

When it comes to be brave,
They are nowhere to face.
But when it comes to be coward,
They are everywhere to race.

When it comes to truth,
They are nowhere to believe.
But when it comes to lie,
They are everywhere to weave.

When it comes to religion,
They are everywhere to swallow.
But when it comes to action,
They are nowhere to follow.

When it comes to use words,
They are nowhere to resort.
But when it comes to violence,
They are everywhere to support...

— The End —
