Human island At Tony’s Baltimore Grill

By Vladimir Huber

Worried, trembling, but keeps on going
where? it doesn’t matter
just following everyday’s «existence»

Far, far away, unnoticeable to the rest
his great empty feeling fills all his existence
Existence unexisting as the flow goes on

You can try to reach him, but he might be too far
He might try to reach, but he might be too alone

Brother, come to us
recognize what you don’t see in yourself
Come, arrive, get closer
we need you, maybe, not as bad as you need us
but we wouldn’t mind to be united
‘cause you just can’t go on like that
Please listen, ‘cause the call is ringing now
and who knows for how long

Brother, get closer
Warmth exists
