The Past Is Another Land
Journey Through Emptiness: The Past, Present, and Future Unveiled
Lyrics
You know nothing about me, and care even less.
You have no knowledge about me, and you don't care at all.
How could you understand our emptiness?
How can you grasp the depth of our emptiness?
You plundered our wisdom, our knowledge, our wealth.
You have exploited our wisdom, knowledge, and wealth.
In bleeding us dry, you long for our spirit.
By draining us of resources, you desire our resilience.
But that you will never posess.
However, you will never possess our spirit.
The past is now another land,
The past is now a distant place beyond my grasp.
far beyond my reach.
Invaded by harmful foreign elements and languages.
Invaded by insidious foreign bodies, foriegn speech
Yet, the timeless joys of childhood are shattered on the shore.
but the timeless joys of childhood lie broken on the beach.
The present is an empty space, between the good and bad.
The present is an empty space between good and bad experiences.
A moment leading nowhere,
A moment that leads nowhere significant.
too pointless to be sad, but time enough to lay to waste,
Too insignificant to be sad, but enough time to destroy every certainty.
every certainty I had.
The future is a barren world
The future is a desolate world without a chance for return.
from which I can't return.
Devoid of thought and filled with materialism,
Both thoughtless and material,
Its pitiful spoils mock any concern I have.
it's wretched spoils mock my concern.
Shining like an evil sun, as my childhood treasures burn.
It shines like an evil sun, witnessing the burning of my childhood treasures.
Shining like an evil sun, as my childhood treasures burn.
Reiteration of the destructive impact on childhood memories.
