i tried to change the mistakes of the past
i tried to predict the future
i tried to understand the present
but the world is no longer a blank canvas as it used to be
i tried to learn all the languages
i tried to get to know each culture
i tried to feel intensely
but the world is no longer innocent
i lost my life to the destiny of this cruel world
i left everything behind in search of some peace
but the world turned its back
when i reached out
and asked for forgiveness
i no longer believe in us,
in this constitution,
in these crazy people in suits,
in the population
i lost my faith for a better time
i follow my life in the automatic
one step forward
the other behind
in this coming and going
between hope and illusion
