Hey, I lit a lot of fires
And I stirred a lot of waters,
I was driven by happiness and evil.
And so you know, I spent three bucks,
And didn’t even think
That everything goes with the wind,
Once and for all…
Hey, where are those marbles,
Cherries from the outskirts,
Books from the sixth grade?
Where are now those high school make up artists,
First student excursions
And the nostalgic letters from the military?
And you see I’m already here halfway - it’s all smoke!
And the photographs have faded.
And you see I’m already here halfway, now I need you,
Be my guardian through blurred landscapes.
Hey, strange pathways to success,
Strong faith in friends,
And to each I gave back the same.
And now, if this comforts you,
I never forgave others of their debts,
And to each, at least, I gave back what they deserved.
And you see I’m already here halfway…
Hey, now I know where I made mistakes,
And where, unfortunately, I was nasty,
And where, unfortunately, I wasn’t.
And so you know, I solved all the riddles,
But I still sometimes
Run into a windmill.
