lirik lagu kurt elling - stays

Loading...

there was a man on the second floor
he’d always retreat behind his door
whenever i’d come off a tour

from what i gathered he’d never leave the floor
i’d hold my breath when i’d hear his sneak~ering pause at the door

creaking the floor
hiding, for sure

once came a fiery flame / and the fireman came
hurrying staircases / dropping floods up / up above me
making a vertical sea

wе ran around saving what could / until the fireman said that we should
gеt out of doors and stay for good / like we knew we should

they brought the man from the second floor / he was carried out by police and more
pitching forward / running out of air / down the stair / into glaring lights
looking unaware of the night

they set him down and he sat by me
for once in time began speaking free / pointing out a flaming tree
just two refugees / looking at the spectacle sight / and crying

that was when he said something to the air
“i saw a burning like this before / the fire there / it was war, for sure
screaming into the air / soldiers on the stair / i could only stare / i couldn’t endure”
looking at the man / he was pretty old
and i began to fear he was shuddering from the cold
but what he said sent an icy hold & told me what his unconsoled / beholding eyes knew:
“i lost my family in ’42. the reason i would hide from your view:
the ss man looked just like you”

from what i gathered he’d never leave the floor
i’d hold my breath when i’d hear his sneak~ering pause at the door
creaking the floor hiding, for sure
‘cause where is the cure? / & how to endure?
when fear and hate is such a lure
at history’s core
the answer’s obscure . .
