A City With No Foundation
In a city with no foundations
People are pursuing meaningless goals
Waiting for completion in their lives
Believing everything and nothing
In a city with no foundations
People only see their own inverted images
How difficult it is for them
To recognize who they are!
The emptiness is covered by pretty deceptions
Which push sorrow down into darkness
However, the darkness can hold nothing
If sorrow has no place to be kept,
Happiness will be unrecognisable
The empty void loved by people
They build their dreams on it
Oh, what a wonderful reality! They say,
Our dreams are more real than realities
Don’t look, don’t listen,
Don’t feel, don’t talk
Don’t share, don’t love
Don’t keep living, don’t die either
Make the utmost efforts to obtain
Peace through the blood of our enemies
Security from lethal weapons
In the city with no foundation
