Lyrics
Close To The Wind
We only live on this earth like a member of chain
We sail close to the wind
The chain has more than a Million small elements   
They all have their own past.
 
We live on this earth like a heap of little worms
and think that everything belongs to us
But we sail close to the wind
Close to the wind.
 
We live here like the owners of this earth and exploit
We take what we can get
We don’t look to the right and to the left
As if we were blind  
But we are here only guests                                   
We aren't interested in the neighbour
if we are well anyway.
                                      
Sometimes we show charity
but it often isn't meant honestly         
so we sail close to the wind
Too close to the wind
 
--- Instrumental ---
 
We have not recognized that we bear all blame on this earth
We don’t hear the cry
The storms, the dying wood, the crying children and much more
We close our eyes
Most important is that we are well now and here
it seems no matter what happens around us
Therefore we sail close to the wind
close to the wind.
 
We only live on this earth like a link of a chain
We sail close to the wind
The chain has more than a Million broken elements
They all have their own terms
May I remind you that we cannot turn back time?
May I remind you somewhere along the way we have to pay
But we sail close to the wind
Close to the wind.
