Clouds

Don't open the door
to your loneliness,
the city is dead,
but what does it matter.

Don't swear by the storm
even if your Moon is fading,
the clouds won't go away, won't go away, won't go away, won't go away
they just stay inside and crying.

And now why do you pray
at the old altar.
Don't lower your head,
and don't look back.

Don't swear by the storm
even if your Moon is fading,
the clouds won't go away, won't go away, won't go away, won't go away
they just stay inside and crying.
Inside and crying.
From nowhere

When the night sky smells like salt
when the crows go out alone to look
When the lighthouse light sweeps the city
and in the windows there's no one left.

Praying to God, they threw themselves into the sea.
Leaving us, to nowhere.

When in the street everything remains the same
and on the rooftops someone dreams of flying
When people dress up as animals
when there's no choice but to be silent.

Praying to God, they get lost at sea
Leaving us, to nowhere.

When tomorrow no one wants to remember
when the years erase all the truth,
Even if the children are taught to forget
and in the newspapers nothing else is written.

Far from God, their souls will continue
Looking for us, from nowhere...
Far from God, their souls will continue
Looking for us, from nowhere...
