Where the minds reject
It shelters in a solitary world
Fidgets like a hovering danger
Reluctance, the only neighbouring sister
Dominates the city

verliert sich Ton für Ton

Geradeaus

Vergessen sind die Tage, 
nebelleicht
wie Lichter aus der Ferne,
so leicht verschwommen.
Die Zukunft steigt herab
in uns're Zeit,

From the depths of Baja
Carry the warmth in upon a draft....
