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
We live here like the owners of this earth and exploit
We don’t look to the right and to the left
But we are here only guests
We aren't interested in the neighbour
Sometimes we show charity
but it often isn't meant honestly
so we sail close to the wind
We have not recognized that we bear all blame on this earth
The storms, the dying wood, the crying children and much more
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
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
