smoke hangs on the city like it always used to be
while the first leaves are fallin from the trees
mother lokks like she always did
as the earth falls down the coffin lid
later she's watching the pictures of her son
and asks herself how life is going on
father's wiping the tears from his eyes
too many questions are missing replies
the paving stones are full of blood
spilled in all of these years
the difference in paying to god
has built a wall of tears
take me high above, high above the sky
take me high above, 13 years are to young
to young to die
now she ist sharing so many women's fate
the soldier, who shot, has got his parade
nothing changes at this b***** place
tomorrow they are standing at another one's grave
and smoke hangs on the city, like it always used to be
while the last leaves are fallin from the trees
mother lokks, like she always did
as the earth falls down on the coffin lid
the paving stones are.....
take me high above....
