- You first
- No, you first!
- Please! I insist!
- Ok... I appreciate your kindness...
- It's my honor!
Some things are unforgetable
The first love
The first kiss
The soccer team celebrating like it shouldn't
Friends laughing till it hurts
The first rifle
The first killing
The first death
The first moment of realization that everything will be forgotten
And others will be forgotten too
Like a necessity of formality
Like a routine
Like a shake of hands
- You improvise your speeches all the time?
- No! No at all! Although it's fantastic that it sounds like this. I'm always studying the impact of words on the masses, my guys are always testing them for me and when I get enough data I choose my phrases and cash the success. And you, you sound like you have all planned...
- Not as you think. Although I'm always reflecting about what I should say I'm always paying attention to the ones I'm going to talk, you see... What they want to listen they show through their eyes... So when I talk I'm just giving back the words they wanted to hear.
- We have a lot to learn from each other!
- Indeed my friend, indeed!
Many faiths are being called by the believers
But the only temple built is to Death
Peace in the afterlife
War on Earth
Lie after lie
Rebirth
How profitable must be peace so humanity can change business?
- You're the Rocket Man!
- No! You're the Rocket Man!
- Seriously, admit that...
- I do admit that you're the Rocket Man!
- And it's going to be a long long time!
- AHAHAHAHAHA!
They were sent to embody peace
But in this field
A brain can't think of peace
The mouth can't speak of it
The hand can't reach another
It's the non-language
No difference, nothing in common
No translating
No mistery, no knowledge
Only disappearance
Dust in the wind
History not present becoming past
Humanity not present becoming ghost
Angels and Demons stopped their war
There're no souls to fight for

What's life?
It was somewhere here
There were people dancing and smiling
I
Remember love
Remember when we were like music drifting through the night
When the wind joined our embrace
Grace in tomorrow smile
Our secrets hidden in everyday
Giving us abundance of time
Even when we're running
The walls ahead
You walked through them
Because they were only shadows after all
Faith isn't lack of sight
It's commitment to seeing more and better
Because you didn't give up what the seed could be
And here you and me
Love is never lost
Because love is searching
Being alone is the absence of longing
Being lost isn't not having a way but not believing in it
And even when we are apart
We're dreamers that are always together
Say today
There's beauty in life,
There's joy to be found or to be invented
There's reason to believe and if there's not
Go beautifully crazy!
You can move forward whether you can forget the past or not
You can start your journey if you choose to learn instead of waiting for the wisdom
It will come in your way
So make it yours
Can I somehow make you see?
Despite the pain and silence
The seed is still there
You haven't seen it all
You can still grow
II
Where life hope sings softly through the lights of the night
A child dreams
not of conquest, not of fear
but of laughter
and what the clouds of tomorrow will be playing
III
War is surrendering humanity to fear
And for fear we hide in battlefields
And pretend we can't understand each other
Surrender your fear
Face the truth
Peace depends on you looking at me
And me looking at you
Instead of sending machines to write silence and death
If we stop wanting hell on each other
We can stop apocalypse now
IV
Before you go
There’s more to life than what we know
But to learn it we need to rise from the dead
And put an end to this war
Every second of peace counts
Even on the war fields
It can remind there's still time
To stop being a machine in a danceless eternity
So we can breathe humanity and a new age
Beyond the conflict the real fight for life starts
You were a weapon
Now be free
