The Remains Of Today
When I am on my knees
Someone help me please
When I don’t know how to bear
Won’t just someone out there care?
In the morning light
Disappears the night
In the movements of the day
Nocturnal sorrows fly away

All my bruises fade
My thoughts will change, and so will I
My realistic prayers reach heaven and hell
They both help me

When I am crying my heart out
To silence my inner shout
And when in deep despair I am I know that to do more I can
Oh whatever it is
I feel the presence of
I understand the simile of
That it is coming from above

Ancient beliefs come together in this present day
Priests and scholars lose confusion a little bit more for every day

My eyes look upon the beauty which has begun
And yet I see the remains of today
But the world is arranging for the some future for the kids
And I know, I know there is a future

Oh, my God, when will men stop raping?
Oh, my God, when will Arabs stop killing?
Oh, my God, when will we become one here?
Oh, my God, when will war disappear?
