The Source

What's wrong with me
I can't find shelter
My country is enemy territory
And you pretend to see, but you don't see

Wash your hands, they will knock on your door
But first you will see your little children bringing news

How many children were killed this time?
Don't do to others what you don't want
To be done to you
You pretend not to see and that gives cancer

I don't know what I'm capable of anymore
Hope, your sheets smell of disease
And see that from the source I'm kilometers ahead

I celebrate every day
My life and my friends
I believe in myself
And I stay clean

You think you know
But you don't see that evil is a loss
What's wrong with me?
I know nothing and I stay clean

Next to the white cypress
To the left of the entrance to hell
Is the source of forgetfulness
I go further, I don't drink from this water
I reach the lake of memory
Which has pure and fresh water
And I say to the guardians of the entrance
'I am a child of Earth and Heaven'

Give me to drink, for I have an endless thirst
Look into my eyes, I am the torch-man
Take away this shame, free me from this guilt
Pull out this hatred, rid me of this fear

Look into my eyes, I am the torch-man
And this is a love song
And this is a love song
