I am not afraid

of anything, I just wait --


to see how things go.


Ik ben nergens bangIch habe vor nichts
voor, ik wacht gewoon maar af --Angst, ich warte einfach ab --

hoe het verder gaat.wie es weiter geht.

Zywa Who can do something about it

The army shoots at medics, at bringers
of food and at the voices crying
to report on it

The army shoots at children
it drove from their homes
or lets starve there

The army shoots at refugees
tortures their bodies and their despair
kills their vital organs

The army shoots at everyone
in no man's land
until no one is left there

and none of the spectators
have to do anything anymore
because it is over
