Lyrics
I'm a wise man, waiting for a better day
I'm a fool, who will never fly away
my blue eyes look inside the empty people I meet
but my wise soul's buring them
where memories can't find them
Yes, I'm frightened,
but I know I'm gonna win
now I stand up, I arise and I face my life
like I have never done before,
and my ears will hear the tears of time,
yes, I'm thirsty, I want a twilight looking like a dawn
My thirst is strong,
I wanna drink the love I left behind
I'm gonna live again in love
and I will explode in such a burning light
nobody'll every recognize my thirst
I'm a rich man, is there anything I still don't own?
I'm a poor man, and I wanna fuck the world
I'm an old boy, I wanna know what there's behind the wall
just a young man, I believe there are so many answers
My thirst now shouts,
and life's too short to stop and say it's enough
to be a little angry man
and I will explode
and my whole heart will spread so many wings
I'm gonna dry the world with my thirst
I'm gonna eat, I'm gonna drink
I'm gonna live, I'm gonna fight
I'm gonna be, I'm gonna love
I'm gonna dry the world with my thirst
