Originally released on "Life was the answer" (2007)

lyrics

From the story of my past,
Maybe you’ll draw what I missed.
Hear my confessions pour at last,
Still my soul won’t know the peace.

Many young men passed away...
God was good, and let me stay.
I don’t think he loved me more,
I was blessed by the war...

Here’s the burden of my life,
All the secrets have been told.
And there’s no chance you make it light,
But something in it you’re to unfold.

Many good friends broke away...
I don’t know what made me stay.
Some had faith, and they got struck.
Some were scared, but they found luck...

And you may wonder how it feels,
When you got spared to warn the others...
Did life taste better after this ?
Well, I tasted all mine,
In memory of fallen brothers.

Many troubles paved your way,
Promise you won’t go astray.
I’m a corpse they brought alive,
Now you know some dead survive...

No, you’ll never picture what I saw,
Unless you live the same...
But I don’t hope you ever will.
Still I blink several times in a row,
When I recall their names,
To let my visions get out with...

Many young men passed away,
God just wouldn’t let them stay.
I don’t think he loved me more,
I was chosen by the war...

I was lucky at the war.
