Oude Kerk III

They invaded countries
That were not their own
They imposed what they were
Upon who wanted to believe
Traveling the continents
They sailed the seas
They overflew their conquests
To enslave them with ease
But why
Oh why
We have succeeded
In these trails
But why
Oh why
Wisdom has died
And reason failed
Suddenly
She goes down the steps
Of your existence
It crosses
Your inner borders
Wether you wanted to keep closed
It is now time
To go back to sleep
To forget everything
You have seen
None of this
Is tangible
Delete that quick
From your mind
But why
Oh why
Have we gone
So far
But why
Oh why
We sunk
Into madness
We should set free
Submissive souls
We must let them go
To their ideal
We are responsible
For the permanent chaos
With which
We must deal
But why
Oh why
It’s so long to understand
But why Oh why
This evil seems
To have no end, no end
Please, free me
Let the bird fly away
Look at me
I will die if I stay
All this world
I really want to see
All those places
I just need to be
But now, we all know that it won’t happen
We will live with this destiny
Try to understand
Day by day
How to manage these gaps
And finally open the doorway
But why
Oh why
We have succeeded In these trails
But why
Oh why
Wisdom has died
And reason failed
