Songtext If not you (im ein at) Noa

If not you (im ein at)

what is broken or ready to break
who is asleep and who stays awake
who lives with all of memory's ache?

who has gone and who stayed still
who looked back, and who never will
who is empty, who can fill?

who is blind and who reflects
who has sworn and who defects
who can sleep and who protects?

who has made it all so clear
who has lost and who will cheer
who kept still, erased the tear?

if not you,
who will do?
who will do for you, if not you?

be strong, be strong!!
lift your chin up high!
that way your tears go no further than your cheek..
take care, take care
of the thunder in your sky!
the spark in your eye
always keep!

if not you,
who will do?
who will do for you, if not you?
never soft or tender,
no brother or mender will render your fall without pain
if not you,
who will do?
if not you,
who?
