lyrics

Listen to the songs of the birds.
Behold the art made by the clouds dancing in the sky.
Feel the caress of the wind.
Let yourself be carried by the beauty of the untouched world.

Majestic and beautiful is the Earth
Yet her wrath towers upon our greed
That led us to take for granted
More than what we even needed.
So much has been destroyed, yet we are so new
Children already too old to retrieve what we’ve lost

Do you remember the colours of the autumn leaves?
The smell of the grass in the morning rain?
How small do we feel in the shadows of the mountains?
How powerless we stand next to the sea...

Relentless noises to mute the bird’s voices
We yell our songs
In a deafening disharmony.
Squares have replaced the beauty of chaos.
Lines have covered wavy paths.
Nature is no longer part of our life,
We’re no longer part of nature.
It has become a foreigner to us.
We set a border between us and the world.

Majestic and beautiful is the Earth
Yet her wrath towers upon our greed
So much has been destroyed, yet we are so new
Children already too old to retrieve what we’ve lost

May the beauty of chaos find back its place upon its throne
May the birds sing again
May their voices echo in a world devoid of us
