Here comes the rain On fenced courtyards Here comes the shade On dead-end ways Here comes the grey To dim the colors Here comes the cold To wake the pain
It's hard to live in silent corners Weary leaves And crooked stalks Flowers bow Towards the light So I do Out of shape, out of sight
Calm! It's alright they say Calm! you're straight on your way out Calm's the last things I fel 'cause what is too calm seems to be unreal
Yet down inside Seas are raging One tear and hell shall burst Cold tearing and grey as lead I push it back as I bend my head And keep on standing If I'm here tomorrow, God, don't let it be raining
An abandoned bone Lone, dead, shabby One doomed man Who can't give up One croked flower That still wants to live I clutch at my last hour At the restless sea
Calm! It's alright they say Calm! you're straight on your way out Calm's the last things I feel 'cause what is too calm seems to be unreal
Yet down inside Seas are raging One tear and hell shall burst
Cold tearing and grey as lead I push it back as I bend my head And keep on standing If I'm here tomorrow, God, don't let it be raining
Calm! It's alright they say Calm! you're straight on your way out Calm's the last things I feel 'cause what is too calm seems to be unreal
Yet down inside Seas are raging One tear and hell shall burst Cold tearing and grey as lead I push it back as I bend my head And keep on standing Though I know well there's no way back in And the world out here keeps on turning Am I too far behind I raise my hand but can't say farewell Just as long as tides keep on turning Until tomorrow if there's tomorrow for me... to live
