lyrics

when there is violence
when there is impatience
when there is selfishness
when there is imperialism
when there is prejudice
when there is superficiality
when there is coercition
in the people that we love

i try to do it
just like you do it
but it's hard to do it
just like you do it

it's true i want to run away
it's true i want to go back home
it's true i want to avoid conflict
to tame this stomachache
because i fear they would change me
yes i fear i would forget myself
feel the need to regenerate
i know i shouldn't think that way

i try to do it
just like you do it
but it's hard to do it
just like you do it

as much as i try to be antenna-like
so many times it brought me down to shrink
makes me provide less attention
don't know yet how to fight corrosion
exit rebellion for existence
now could i start to be a healing force ?
there is a cage that i have to exit
which one is it ?


never prove
never fake
clear as the autumn river
you were wise enough to heal

since you've gone
through their words
i have discovered the strength
you never boasted about

looking back
with new eyes
did you reach the satori ?
so many secrets still in you

diaries
in your room
protected by dignity
could they teel me how you've done ?
