I look up and search the leaden skies
observing all of its fury
shapes of concrete destruction stare down at me
my heart grows sick
my anxious mind prepares for the fumes
that pollute our precious planet
I watch the angry faces and their fast paces
trying to disguise myself
I hurriedly follow
and just for a second
I feel like one of them
but my legs fail beneath me
and I fall deeply into the grains beyond age
until I close my eyes and remember
that I am so far from last November

I look up and search the leaden skies
observing all of its fury
shapes of concrete destruction stare down at me
my heart grows sick
my anxious mind prepares for the fumes
that pollute our precious planet
I watch the angry faces and their fast paces
trying to disguise myself
I hurriedly follow
and just for a second
I feel like one of them
but my legs fail beneath me
and I fall deeply into the grains beyond age
until I close my eyes and remember
that I am so far from last November
