Just look around on the street And slowly tell me what do you see Start with the weather and carry on I can't go out I'm too old It's been real hard on our state Two world wars and one big mistake Isolation, losing rights Throughout my life only fights Just look around on the street And slowly tell me what you see Tell me what's missing, how's the life If there is someone still outside And as I hear what you have to say I'm slowly losing all my faith The faith in humans, the faith in wit The big fire is about to be lit It's been real hard on our kin To be locked up in the dark within And right after we despoiled the velvet land The big mistake is here again And there might not be a lot of folks Who still remember shutting doors And being quiet on the streets So you wouldn't feed the hungry ears And if you're slightly out of line You're being questioned, stamped as a liar And next thing you know is a goodbye And you are scared for your life We used to sit by the fire And slowly build our desire Maybe one day we will cross the line And publicly share what's on our mind And the ones who fought with their bare hands Would be embarrassed to see how it ends And I thought that we would learn But the party's place is already firm There used to be something in our hearts We used to call the national pride Maybe it's late to put the fire down But as sure as I breath I can try And there might not be a lot of folks Who still remember shutting doors And being quiet on the streets So you wouldn't feed the hungry ears And if you're slightly out of line You're being questioned, stamped as a liar And next thing you know is a goodbye And you are scared for your life
