10.The Stairs of the World
Here you can see the world alive／ all engaged in its different
works／ with the people on both my sides／ I like hearing their
colourful words／ I see a boy who's kissing a girl／ and she looks
right at me／ She wants to say 'you are alone／ you can't receive
what I can feel'／／ Why do you want to make me suffer？／ Why do
you want to make me cry？／ I have done nothing bad to you,／ and
you, you don't, you don't even know me／／ When I turn into Ash on
the Stairs of the World／ I see all the people come and go／ When
I turn into Ash on the Stairs of the World／ I watch a horrible
show, I watch a horrible show／／ This is the place where a
promise is told／ and I wonder if it will be holden／ where a
misunderstood white dress／ is sign of faithfully love confessed／
Where all races meet in a crazy dance／ full of colours and
sounds, religions and lands／ I know that you all men will pass
here someday／ and something you will think, you'll understand／／
Will you go back to your homeland？／ And will you take what you
have learned？／ All this singing and dancing and singing and
dancing／ is the diversity of lives／ and this keeps this world
alive／／ When I turn... ／／ All this moving and speaking and
burning and freshening／ is the heart of the Cosmos／ We are
self-moving pawns in a game／ We are like a picture that knows
how to draw itself／ The heart will beat along／ if you come and
dance on the Stairs of the World／／
