The Tocsin

You saw her standing at the gateway
with her hands in the clouds.
But the higher she is moving
the more it gets you down.
And she’s waiting in the afterglow!
With her eyes somewhere else.
It’s like she says:
«Don't let it worry you»
Was it just a warning
Someday you might awake
And maybe all inside of you
is not enough for what you take
Was it just a warning
Someday you might awake
And maybe all inside of you,
maybe… you'll fail.
Somewhere out where you are standing still
and shovel dust in the wind.
Someone told you’d
better wait until the rain will begin.
Maybe it’s time for reflections
and the night endless long gives
you chance enough
to make believe it’s going on.
Was it just a warning
Someday you might awake
And maybe all inside of you
is not enough for what you take
Was it just a warning
Someday you might awake
And maybe all inside of you,
maybe… you'll fail.
