the gOLD man and the SEE

i didn't know a fail
and wanted to change the world
i was free and went under sail
but now they're furled
i can’t go – i put myself into a jail
and just stopped!

i had some aim to reach
i had some sense in youth
i was so mad!
but now! what now? am i rich?
i've become so solid and smooth!
like a bone of a dead!

who am i? ain’t on the cross?
so what am i? a servant or a boss?
anyway i've got no will, no force
caring about nothing but exchange course
i’ve just got my life conserved
the fire in my heart died out
and there’s no remorse!
i’m alone suffering from gout
and the Sea doesn’t care a toss

i just wanna possess and accumulate
the stuff i get - i think it's the fate
i calmed down as if i know the aim
really i've forgot it in the process to gain

i wanted to create something good
but nobody just understood
and now what's wrong with me?!
i'm on the See!
i'm not me!
before the death i confess to the Sea:
i changed my soul for money
i changed my heart for comfort
i changed my mind for tv
i changed my life for nothing!
