lyrics

BLACK FOREST

No one is here, there's nothing to see
Haven't heard a bird or felt a breeze
Stay calm; bad dreams begin, and usually end
Black Forest is deep and we're drowning

Climb up a tree as high as you dare
Shouldn't there be sky up there somewhere?
Stay calm; maybe it's night or clouded by rain
Black Forest is deep and we're drowning

Starting to feel circles and spins
Shouldn't we remember where we've been?
Stay calm; pick up the crumbs and drop them again
Black Forest is deep and we're drowning

Memories of home are fading with time
Wasn't there a feeling called delight?
From now on: darkness for air and footsteps for friends
Black Forest is deep and we're drowning
