Description
Sometimes it all comes down to something simple - saying the right word at the right time, touching someone's shoulder, and stopping building walls that are cold anyway. After all, life is not about a collection of victories and mistakes, but about the ability to give a piece of yourself, even if it seems that there is so little left. And in this honesty, the warmest thing suddenly opens up - the person next to you.

Lyrics and translation
Original
Dlaczego nie mówimy o tym, co nas boli otwarcie?
Budowa ściany wokół siebie marna sztuka.
Drażliwe słowo czy dotyk ust.
Czasami tylko tego pragnę.
Tego szukam.
Na miły Bóg.
Życie nie tylko po to jest, by brać.
Życie nie po to, by bezczynnie stać.
I aby żyć siebie samego trzeba brać.
Problemy twoje, moje, nasze, twoje, polityka.
A przecież każdy włos jak naszych lat policzą.
Kto jest bez winy, niechaj pierwszy rzuci kamień.
Nie rzuci.
Daleko raj, gdy nad człowieka się zamyka.
Na miły Bóg.
Życie nie tylko po to jest, by brać.
Życie nie po to, by bezczynnie stać.
I aby żyć siebie samego trzeba brać.
Na miły Bóg.
Życie nie tylko po to jest, by brać.
Życie nie po to, by bezczynnie stać.
I aby żyć siebie samego trzeba brać. Na miły Bóg.
Życie nie tylko po to jest, by brać.
Życie nie po to, by bezczynnie stać.
I aby żyć siebie samego trzeba brać.
Na miły Bóg. Życie nie tylko po to jest, by brać.
Życie nie po to, by bezczynnie stać. I aby żyć siebie samego trzeba brać.
English translation
Why don't we talk about what hurts us openly?
Building a wall around yourself is a poor art.
A touchy word or touch of the mouth.
Sometimes that's all I want.
This is what I'm looking for.
For God's sake.
Life is not just about taking.
Life is not meant to stand idly by.
And in order to live you have to take yourself.
Your problems, mine, ours, yours, politics.
And yet each hair will be counted as our years.
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.
He won't quit.
Far from paradise, when it closes over man.
For God's sake.
Life is not just about taking.
Life is not meant to stand idly by.
And in order to live you have to take yourself.
For God's sake.
Life is not just about taking.
Life is not meant to stand idly by.
And in order to live you have to take yourself. For God's sake.
Life is not just about taking.
Life is not meant to stand idly by.
And in order to live you have to take yourself.
For God's sake. Life is not just about taking.
Life is not meant to stand idly by. And in order to live you have to take yourself.
