Don't stare at me! I'm not an animal! Just a child of man - a strange thing to you - perhaps With eyes and ears Heart and emotions And yet a mind that's clear and free! Perhaps I'm just a shade Casting darkness on your plans Perhaps I am a storm Whose quiet rain slakes the thirst of many a seed for growth Make - Humans - like machines - and see - they march - mindlessly - in step and - all think - they're different and sperate - free and - in charge of their lives Don't stare at me! Look deep into yourselves It's not the others that are guilty - and poisoning this word No - each and every one of us struggles and fights and shapes this life And whenever you speak Whose spirit is speaking through your words? Have you ever stood at the abyss between heart and mind? Can you say - I'm learning who I am? Your terrible simplicity Believing everything you told Naturalness and autonomy But please only within the confines of the social system Why facade? Isn't there enough egoism in the world? Enough self obsession covering self-hate? Isn't it enough that everyone is out for himself? And no-one understands that the walls of solitude are the walls of egoism?
