lyrics

YOU'RE THE CHANGE

"Schau hi do liegt de Waid im Dreg und olle midanand schaund weg. Andasd wiads ned vo aloa, do meas ma scho wos doa." - Miserablige Hundsbuam

I say it's time to make a stand,
let's turn these common wrongs to ethically acceptable rights.
There are alternatives.
Let's cut the blinds!
We might not change the whole world,
but at least ourselves and create a Mexican-standoff by displaying our discontent about our surroundings! "We must be the change we wish to see"*
You can't make the difference?
Well, your faineance can!
You can see reason and care
for someone else,
or keep your selfish way of disregard and disrespect. Since I got my eyes opened
by "the sound of change",
I doubt what's fed to us
and began to think for myself,
to make decisions with my mind and my heart.
There is suffering, pain and tragedy in our world,
but the day you close your eyes to it,
your heart will die by the bitterness you feed to it.
As soon as you don't want to face it,
don't stand against it in any way,
you might as well embrace it.
(* Mahatma Gandhi)
