Schon So Lang

I'm on my way,
So long.
Misguided and slow,
So long.

I'm tired and empty,
Want to go south to the sea.
I'm on my way with no return,
So long.

I see the wars, the distress,
So long.
Ruins and death,
So long.

I see the tears, the anger,
I see the wounds, the blood.
Strangled and decayed,
what was strong and good,
So long.

I often see the world in dreams,
So long.
As a mushroom cloud tree,
So long.

You, lords of the world,
Your lies, the murder of millions who believe,
In your word,
For too long.

Not only horrors happen,
So long.
I've seen love,
So long.

I see hope, courage,
I see faith, the fire
and what happens in the faces of children,
So long.

I'm on my way,
So long.
Misguided and slow,
So long.

I'm tired and empty,
Want to go south to the sea.
I'm on my way with no return,
So long.
