Rage
I don't know how it could have happened,
but sometime, maybe while flicking through the newspaper,
it got totally lost.
Somewhere between the scandals, the catastrophes and the wars, under a pile of wastepaper, that's where it must be now.
I've looked everywhere and read my eyes half blind
but my chest is as empty as if it had never been there at all.
just a bit of helplessness is all that i found
and nobody picks up stones for that.
I know very well that this world isn't fair
and i regret that a lot, but it hasn't made me angry for a very long time.
I've lost my rage,
it just doesn't show up anymore,
even now, where i need it the most.
I've lost my rage, it's just not there anymore,
there's only an outline in chalk around the place it used to be.
The slogans outside on the wall fade away.
I've run past them too many times already.
All my beautiful rage unfortunately remains on the path
somewhere in the litter, over there, on the corner,
just where the old man is going through the bins
muttering his mantras with crazy eyes,
I ask myself, when he might have lost it,
but maybe it's just generally lost in this city
And I know very well that the world isn't fair
and i regret that terribly, but that hasn't made me angry for a long time now.
And i sit there in the courtyard, my skull full of loud, meaningless stuff. Looking into my little piece of heaven, bordered by silent grey walls.
And, looking around, i don't see anything round me,
as if i had blinkers on my heart,
just my little piece of heaven and that's much too far away.
And I know very well that this world isn't fair
and i regret that terribly, but angry? it hasn't made me that for a long time now.
I've lost my rage,
it just doesn't show up anymore,
even now, where i need it the most.
I've lost my rage,
it's just not there anymore,
there's only an outline in chalk around the place it used to be
