Alex P.. - Forgotten

People forget how to love
Children forget how to laugh
Priests forget how to pray
Farmers forget how to sow

why?

Nations forget how to keep peace
The freed forget how to feel relief
Nomads forget how to stay free
When will I forget about me?

When sand forgets to move
And water forgets to flow
When birds forget to fly
Then, we've gone too far

Too far from the ground
Too far from the sun
Lost alone in space
Your life's an aimless race

Alex P..
