Lyrics

BLIND MAN

Who / What's your God then? Scientist or Madmen?

To what you speak amen? Calm, stress or mayhem?

Little girls, make a change to the world

Where does your past lie? In turtles or fruitflies?

To what you said goodbeye? Petty or root lies?

Little boys, make a change with your toys - rearrange

 

If you ask me no questions, I'll maintain the impression that I'm all in the know

 

What steers your next step? Instinct or road map?

To what you'll salute, chap? Hat, lid or fool's cap?

Little you, make a change with your shoes - find your way

 

If you ask me no questions, I'll maintain the impression that I'm all in the know

 

Is there a reason why don't ask me nothing anymore, about anything?

Is there a way I can find out the trouble that you think that it may bring?

Is there a fortune-teller who told you about an evil curse or a magic ring?

I won't recall - not at all

 

If you ask me no questions, I'll maintain the impression that I'm all in the know

 

LIFE IS ALL WE KNOW

Everything changes and us staying put won't stop that happening

Still you are strong enough to stand straight in the current you're in

It takes a long long time, to find a rhyhme to the sublime

Life is all we know

 

And when you are alive

You are needed

In the blistering cold, in the blistering heat

At anytime

By someone alike

Even if it's only to realize

Life is all we know

 

WHEREVER WE ARE

Where the river runs through the mountains steep

And hardly a man could live there

Where the silver wind blows the snow to heaps

And the warmth of the sun is stripped bare

In a deep cave where nobody has ever been

On ledges, thin and afar

Wherever we are

Where the shadows of trees cool us down and a breeze lifts our hair when we dance

Where the sheep run ahead to the hill and the dog is getting wild at the fence

In a meadow where nobody has ever been

Under a cloud shaped like a star

Wherever we are

Where pedestrians hurry themselves ducking, cursing, skipping red lights

Where the sirene's call and there is no attention at all where policemen and all babies cry

In a rain that nobody has ever been in

In the back of a chock-a-block bar

Wherever we are

Where the birds go when they are tired of the world, where the air is thin

Where there is no excuse and you can't find a spur of original sin

On a planet where nobody's ever been

Oh nobody has been

Wherever we are

 

Where the shadows of trees cool us down and a breeze lifts our hair while we dance
