Paroles

The evening air lies heavy and sleep it still escapes me
A night where hope and courage are stillborn
Outside, the lurking shadows press against my windows
And wait for the coming of the storm
They dance, those shadows - when the wind blows

The shadows are advancing, over all the Earth they're dancing
And, everywhere they dance, they shall bring death
All the bright uneven pages that we'vе written through the ages
Shall vanish in thе shadow's poison breath
The storybook will close - when the wind blows

Suddenly I'm frightened, I wish this room was lightened;
Can no one light a candle in the dark?
For I hear the sullen murmur of far off threatening thunder
I feel its menace chill me to the heart
Where can I hide, where can I go? - when the wind blows

There is no one that can save you, and nowhere that you can run to
No shelter in a world that's gone insane
In this world that we created with our arrogance and hatred
We'll stand naked 'neath the gentle deadly rain;
There will be no rainbows - when the wind blows

In the darkness I am trembling, this night seems never ending
It seems the morning sun will never rise
The crashing of the thunder splits my head asunder
And lightning burns and eats into my eyes
And, oh, how the darkness grows - when the wind blows
In a thousand searing flashes, the world shall turn to ashes
Whirling like a burning coal in endless space
Of this world we did inherit, we shall leave a smoking desert
A headstone for the heedless human race
To mark our final throes - when the wind blows

Oh, I must be dreaming, for I thought I heard a screaming
Like a billion lost souls falling into hell
In a thousand tongues bewailing, at indifferent fate all railing
Each one calling on their Saviour as they fell;
Shall we reap what we did sew? - when the wind blows

You can call upon your Saviour, if you think that is the answer
But you've called on him so many times before
Call on Allah, Buddha, Jesus, I doubt if they will hear us
For we've let the Devil loose, now hear him roar
Hell shall overflow - when the wind blows
