OUR ONLY HOPE IS US

From the musical " Soldier of Orange ":

( translation )

Do you sometimes think this doesn't touch our lives?

Or are we waiting for the storm to blow over?

Our friends being destroyed?

Do we watch until the wind turns again?

None of us asked for this

But to pretend your nose is bleeding is God damned

We're asleep, our house is on fire

And you can't leave, it's everywhere.don't bury your head in the sand

If we do nothing, then who will ?

We do see this cannot be, don't we?

It's up to you and me now

Our only hope is us

Don't think this will go away quietly

It won't go away if you just close your eyes

You hear and you see but you are silent

Do you follow your heart or save your skin?

We can't keep pretending this doesn't exist

We forget the rules and we put on an act

There are far too many tears, you still feel the pain

It's up to you now, now you must be there

If we do nothing, then who will?

We do see this is cannot be, don't we ?

It's up to you and me now

Our only hope is us

Don't hide behind your high and safe wall

You have to ask yourself if the world is on fire who will put out the fire?

Do you put out the fire?

It's about you and me

Our only hope is us

We do see this is cannot be, don't we ?

If we do nothing, then who will ?
