lyrics

It's devastating to walk down the road alone
without anyone standing by, to laugh with, to talk with.
This is the first time he felt so empty since the day
people had turned their backs.

While counting every step he took in the wounded lungs of our planet.
He noticed a house which seemed abandoned on first impression.
The young man walked in and noticed an old man.
He seemed very tired, but took every step carefully.

“Where you headed?” asked the old mouth.
“The path I’ve been walking just lost its goal.”

Every day the old man gave his soul another lesson, another story.
One day he said: “Always be careful! Where the careful ones survive, the careless are dead.
And those who ignore the advice of the wise, do so at their own risk, will you remember this?”
The boy realized that every individual he met is a teacher and not an enemy.

Unknown time has passed and he was ready to go, he received some last words.

”Wish for the best, do the best, you have a good heart in your chest.
Implement what you set your mind on and leave all the rest.
Never regret what you did and felt,
bothering with the past is not good for your mind and your health.”
