lyrics

When a country dies, nobody listens to you anymore
When a country dies, everything suddenly becomes stoned

When this country dies, I am here alone with no-one to blame
When a country dies, my radio is shocked like in a storm
When a country dies...

But my country dies, oh my country dies
my beloved birthplace is getting old
and it's going to die, yes it's going to die
I am on this borderline, I am ready for exile

When a country dies, my little darling cries more and more
When a country dies, my only thoughts are dust in the air

When this country dies, a grievous pain grows into my brain
Yes my country dies, but I don't really know where I could disappear!

But my country dies, oh my country dies
killed by ignorance and circumstances
and my country dies with a terrific harm
I think it's better to move away
and my country dies, my country dies
my empty hands are all my crimes
my little eyes are crying hard
my eyes are crying hard as my country dies

(My eyes are crying as my country dies, and my country dies...)
