Lyrics

You know nothing about me! And care even less! How could you understand, Our emptiness? You plundered our wisdom Our knowledge, our wealth In bleeding us dry, you long for our spirit That you will never possess. The past, is now another land Far beyond my reach Invaded by insidious Foreign bodies, foreign speech The timeless joys of childhood Lie broken on the beach The present is an empty space Between the good and the bad A moment leading nowhere Too pointless to be sad But time enough to lay to waste Every certainty I had The future is a barren world From which I can't return Both heartless and material Its retched spoils not my return Shining sun like an evil sun As my childhood treasures burn Shining like an evil sun As my childhood treasures burn
