about

Excerpt in lyrics from Momo by Michael Ende.

lyrics

See the time
That you saved along your lives
Trapped and cold

Down in this place where it cannot thrive

Lay down gold
Get back coal
What you own
Now’s yours no more

«People never seemed to notice that, by saving time, they were losing something else. No one cared to
admit that life was becoming ever poorer, bleaker and more monotonous. The ones who felt this most
keenly were the children, because no one had time for them anymore. But time is life itself, and life resides
in the human heart. And the more people saved, the less they had.»

Their lies sound like the cure
But Pied Pipers lead these mice
Grey shades steal what is pure
And fade with nothing more than ice

So every moment you have lost
Every day you have not witnessed
Is now lying beyond a curtain
No glimpse can see through
Only patience and placidity
Will lead you across the smoke of burning time
While years have passed this fog will last forever
Unless you learn to wait for the tide
