Tales from the third world


I´m a third world child getting mad
In this room among rats
Eating the waste the others don´t need
Crawling to beg, to live

Tell me mother what time you´ll be back
So I´m awake in the dark
Life is hard in these noisy streets
Since dad left us for this selfish dreams

I had a beautiful dream my son
We both rest in peace
All is white in a valley of flowers
No more hunger during empty hours

I scream, but no one hears

I´m screaming from this place
Can you hear me?
I´m screaming, no one cares for us
False answers, tales

We should die soon, so we don´t recall
The greedy pigs of this world
Meanwhile, close your eyes my child
So we give up this fight

I have to kill you with pain in my heart
Please don´t be scared
Together we´ll be in the valley I dreamt
Away from pain, you´ll understand
