I am sitting on a lake
sometimes dreaming sometimes awake
my mind drifting there
over water into air
mother earth holds me tight
father fire wants to fight
torture and disease
endless war instead of peace
boundless greed bears flaming hate
is this really mankind’s fate?
dinosaurs and galaxies
sudden death – eternities
polluted skies (and) infected seas
contamineted rivers and trees
all animals dead and gone
insects on the run
mother earth in agony
father fire raging free
I’m still sitting on that lake
no more dreams I’m wide awake
feeling chaos everywhere
terrifying dark despair
turning back is not in sight
our future filled with fright
plants and creatures know
without water and air they can’t grow
’cause air is the earth of the sea
fire without air can’t be
water and earth, fire and air
sometimes I think we should care!
