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
