In the rain Outside in the rain Staring through the wooden shutters In almost darkness Brown wooden shutters With dust entrusted to them And he see's the man see's the man with the dog The man with the dog staring With sunken eyes He watches He spies With dead sunken eyes Sallow eyes Glassy eyes And then a grand fear is felt All over the body The man with the dog and the sunken eyes He listens He see's through dust entrusted shutters Looks at him outside In the rain In the dark And suddenly a great feeling of hopelessness comes upon the earth And does not seem to leave He does not go away And the rain pours And the man with the dog and the sunken eyes stares And he won't go He won't leave him alone He smiles And watches And won't go away Won't go away Won't leave And In the dark Nothing changes the rain does pour And the man does stare And he does watch And life does go on And nothing changes
