Children of Autumn
Small fragile hands wielding heavy stonesTrying to break the glass cages that surround themWith no one to comfort and no one to protect them,their loneliness carries a heavy weightAnd are we so tired that we refuse to run the course?And are we so blind that we forget what's in our hearts?Autumn brings dusk to life, the endless nightBut there is still time to mend the wounds that you bearWhy haven't I fought for you? My one and only regretTime cries for you, my tears will never forgetAnd are we so cold that we ignore helpless life?Are we so naive to think someone else will save them?The days are gone when I believed that manwould keep the flame aliveA cold heart will never warmthe children for another nightA man lifting the weight of the world,never to see it all againShining our warm lightonto a cold, desolate nightWe cannot bring back what is gone,but we can save all that remainsSongtexteHow can you face the daywhen you can live unseen at nightand hide behind your selfish pridewhile the children of autumn cry?We cannot bring back what is gone,but we can save all that remainsToday I shed my human skinand spill my blood for the animals I live amongFor the animal I have becomeOn this judgment day of my brothers, I am their keeperHow can you face the daywhen you can live unseen at nightand hide behind your selfish pridewhile the children of autumn cry?(x2) Aus Songtexte Mania
