The dark river crawls into the sea
The wind violently pours down rain
We are in the plight of fugitives
Unable to find a place to hide

Chasing a dream, yet unable to reach it
Just as finding usefulness is useless
Not all that blushes rosy is love

We dance recklessly amidst the rising smoke
Like a dark and dirty secret hidden inside
When the noisy north wind, like a wolf, pounces
Filling me with a thousand verses, filling the twilight and dawn

Ah, stranger, play for me
The only salvation left for them is music and poetry
In that forgotten place somewhere beyond
A sleep that no longer mentions alcohol, dreams, or drugs

When the noisy day falls silent
The thunder buried in sleep awakens
Shh, lie down, lie side by side
Rumble, rumble, crash

Even while dreaming, listen
From afar, the enemy's dogs bark
Shh, bite, aiming for the heart
Chasing the fleeing sinner as if dancing
Searching for the sinner, calling the sinner

We swell like balloons, with expectations blown to the fullest
Like the fleeting and obvious excuses that burst inside
When the noisy dark blue night spreads like a bruise
Surrounded by moonlight and frost that bite me like a thousand teeth

Ah, stranger, play for me
All they want from me is judgment
In that forgotten place somewhere beyond
Where there is no distinction between saint and sinner, no shackles of tragedy

The dark river crawls into the sea
The wind violently pours down rain
We are in the plight of fugitives
Unable to find a place to hide
