Visitors (Crackin' Up) |
|
I hear the doorbell ring and suddenly the panic takes me |
|
The sound so ominously tearing through the silence |
|
I cannot move, I'm standing |
|
Numb and frozen |
|
Among the things I love so dearly |
|
The books, the paintings and the furniture |
|
Help me |
|
The signal's sounding once again and someone tries the door-knob |
|
None of my friends would be so stupidly impatient |
|
And they don't dare to come here |
|
Anymore now |
|
But how I loved our secret meetings |
|
We talked and talked in quiet voices |
|
Smiling |
|
Now I hear them moving |
|
Muffled noises coming through the door |
|
I feel I'm |
|
Crackin' up |
|
Voices growing louder, irritation building |
|
And I'm close to fainting |
|
Crackin' up |
|
They must know by now I'm in here trembling |
|
In a terror evergrowing |
|
Crackin' up |
|
My whole world is falling, going crazy |
|
There is no escaping now, I'm |
|
Crackin' up |
|
These walls have witnessed all the anguish of humiliation |
|
And seen the hope of freedom glow in shining faces |
|
And now they've come to take me |
|
Come to break me |
|
And yet it isn't unexpected |
|
I have been waiting for these visitors |
|
Help me |
|
Now I hear them moving |
|
Muffled noises coming through the door |
|
I feel I'm |
|
Crackin' up |
|
Voices growing louder, irritation building |
|
And I'm close to fainting |
|
Crackin' up |
|
They must know by now I'm in here trembling |
|
In a terror evergrowing |
|
Crackin' up |
|
My whole world is falling, going crazy |
|
There is no escaping now, I'm |
|
Crackin' up |
|
Now I hear them moving |
|
Muffled noises coming through the door |
|
I feel I'm |
|
Crackin' up |
|
Voices growing louder, irritation building |
|
And I'm close to fainting |
|
Crackin' up |
|
They must know by now I'm in here trembling |
|
In a terror evergrowing |
|
Crackin' up |
|
My whole world is falling, going crazy |
|
There is no escaping now, I'm |
|
Crackin' up |
|
Voices growing louder, irritation building |
|
And I'm close to fainting |
|
Crackin' up |
|
They must know by now I'm in here trembling |
|
In a terror evergrowing |
|
Crackin' up |
|
My whole world is falling, going crazy |
|
There is no escaping now, I'm |
|
