Fatherland

I see houses burning
I'm ashamed
before you close your eyes denyingly
you'd better ask yourself

did I choose something I could regret
did I do something
I should regret

Is this the place I used to call -
Fatherland
Is this the place I used to know -
as Fatherland

the silence is illusion
stay awake
I hear children crying in fear and pain
do cowards ask themselves?
