I should consider my imperfections
I am much weaker than I used to think
Now, all I want is just to be quiet
Listening silently, being a taciturn bough
Pay attention to the trees' quaking in the wind
Watching like fallen clouds on the ground
Try to be as gentle and lonely as I can.
All beings are so fragile, so sensitive
We can only thrive in this milieu on the Earth
We can exist only in this biosphere
That possesses a delicate yet formidable strength.
Love and thought are waves behind us
They may go unnoticed, uncollapsed secrets
Although there is so much evilness and vanity
Pride, greed, and heartlessness - we can't escape
I know that everyone fears failure and time
We are so tiny, our civilization is so fallible
inherently ambiguous and irresolvable itself.
But If you look around, our capability of love
and making smart steps seems to be shrank
while our shadows and greediness have won
And the caused, unchangeable, uncontrolled
self-destroying process
is going on
And nothing can halt it anymore: there aren't superheroes
that can reverse it; there isn't that much of money
There isn't a power, and words change nothing.
We built a menacing and gobbling monster
That is, just keep eating until it finds any beauty
It will keep moving and grinding down all being
And words, promises and fate won't make a change.
So feel more love, grace and admire
Like in those enchanting songs, we listen to so much
...but our excuses won't save us.
Just laugh at me, laugh, laugh and laugh.
