Mankind

(album: Pink Bubbles Go Ape - 1991)

[Music: R. Grapow, Lyrics: M. Kiske]

Here is all mankind so proud of their achievements
There is a stone that is warmer than you

Look how we stand in the stream of illusions
No one says a word

Here you laugh and there you cry
All that makes you move

There's no fear for anything
Anything but you

Animals dying for our vanity
Our world is a beautiful place to be free

Drinking the blood of the weak, it's so easy
No one hears them cry

Here you cheat and there you lie
All that makes you gain

One day we will face His throne
There's nothing we can say

Prosperity, luxury, fast food is rising
It's the rainforest that dies

Here you laugh and there you cry
All that makes you move

Here you cheat and there you lie
All that makes you gain
