Teräslinnut [English translation]
Teräslinnut [English translation]
Maybe one person won't save the world
But some think it's good like this
And why do the hippies get blamed when someone drives over them with a beamer
And I doubt babies are already angry and I doubt there's anger without yesterday
And who recognizes her/himself anymore without peeking in the mirror
Organic or not that's what they're arguing about
Someone skips a long queue and thinks that this won't be enough for everyone
This is what the world we were born in is like
Birds of steel fly and ice melts
And beautiful glances change into ice-cold eyes
And the change is in what you do, not in what you see
I believe in "everything with moderation" 1
Whether you're fleshy or not
Cigs come from the ground, end up back on the ground, but inbetween it destroyed a body
Many are afraid to look straight at things, head turns easily
Many get frustrated and are scared even though they wonder that good things should be done
People kill for something so they'd get into heaven
But getting into heaven doesn't depend on whether you wear a robe or a cross or whether you believe in transmigration
This is what the world we were born in is like
Birds of steel fly and ice melts
And beautiful glances change into ice-cold eyes
And the change is in what you do, not in what you see
This can change
This can change
This can change
And I believe that it will be dry after the storm
And I hope that love finally pushes the greed away
And this is what the world we were born in is like
And birds of steel fly even if you wouldn't rise up along
And wretched glances change into happy eyes
Don't keep on thinking no one does anything here
This can change.
