Folklore Songtext
von Zuster Zonnebloem

When you scream keep the peace
It sounds so contradictory
I think people only pay attention when you whisper
But the noise is getting loud
And that′s when hands go over ears
And people no longer really care to listen
Show, don't tell
You gotta show, don′t tell

We're all just walking each other home
There's no need to compete, no
What′s the worth of folklore
If it leads us to destroy


If you want a change to come
Take a look into the mirror
How you behave is the only thing in your control
So don′t spend your energy on persuading someone else
You're not their preacher
Nor are they the ones to follow
Show don′t tell
You gotta show, don't tell

We′re all just walking each other home
There's no need to compete, no
What′s the worth of folklore
If it leads us to destroy

The trees they are still standing but they're losing their siblings
The ocean is still there but it's becoming less deep and
Why would waste your time and space on things that′ll never last
Yes there are people building but the breakdown is going faster
Take your hands off of your ears your eyes your heart
You might not wanna hear this but we need a new start
A new way of how things go
A knowing of what′s right and wrong
Cause it can't go on like this


You probably won′t live to see it but the world is at stake
And if I talk about the world
I'm not just talking about the human race
Take a look around you and see all that is left
If there′s still a lot of green you're really fucking lucky
Concrete instead of grass
And factories instead of trees
Many people are conscious
But no one′s really gonna stop it

What's the worth of folklore?
What's the worth of folklore?
What′s the worth of folklore?
