When They Come

 
SUGGESTION: LISTEN TO THE SONG ABOVE WHILE READING


Life is a funny thing
A cocktail of heaven and hell
There is so much to tell
I don't even know where to begin
I want to climb to the top of a cliff and just yell

It was never explained to us
That it is so simple
To fall in love
And that it feels so bad to brake what was made
Nobody told us when we were children
Our teachers have failed

In our bedtime stories we were never warned
About the power of memories - the sharpness of that sword
As everything comes and everything goes
This power replaces a piece of you with thorns
Because we fell in love when she came
And we were torn apart when she was taken away

Life is a funny thing
We watch the things we love the most getting old
And coming to pass
No event just is, it always lasts
Until every memory will be sold
As we are changes to we were
It is in the heart of the greatest drunker
That it is a matter of time
Before they come for her

We were so unlucky
Because we were all born of this Earth
Where happiness is as light as feather
And so out of this world
As we battle with our co-actors
In this theatre of absurd

Life is a funny thing
Because even when we get what we want
Following all the rules and winning all the fights
We know that what lays in our hands is like a feather
We know that one day
They will come for her

So when you get her
Breathe from the depth of your lungs
The song will be sung
When they come for her
