First: when the bad times come
I need to know: "will you be here?"
When surrendered and trapped i'll cry
Will you stand by me?
Hold my hand when it shivers
Cause i hear them coming
My breath hard and the fever
The blood in my throat and in my temples
Exhausted by fear when i need to rest
YOU
Would i hide here?
In the bottom of your cellar, under your sheets
Would i hide here?
A walk through the cold struck down by hunger
And the light of your room at night
Can i trust the light?
When i am not gone after year 2000 because of you
Will you bring me books, books of truth
And hold a little candle?
Stand still please, stand still and under the threat
Would i hide here?
In the trunk of your car or in your bathroom
Would i hide here?
Would i hide here?
In the bottom of your cellar, under your sheets
Would i hide here?
