Lyrics:
A cancer's cloud stalks city streets
Around me cold world is what I see
More addicted to the bottle and the screen
But it don't cure the grief and the violence of my dreams
The silence screams, sign a cross to heaven
Wonder if he hears me, well, I left a message
They tell me that you love me, that the soul is very precious
So why do I feel, that you made us, then you left us?
Crack, I hear the thunder rolling overhead
Cold stare, wind howls, kneeling down, by my bed
Nightmares and silence are my daily bread
Fighting the demons and darkness every night in my head
I'm sleep walking, I'm sleep talking, I'm out of place
I keep stalking, I keep crawling, I'm out of faith
I wish people would stop saying that it'll be OK,
If you've got nothing just stop talking and give it straight
A cancer's cloud stalks city streets
Around me cold world is what I see
More addicted to the bottle and the screen
But it don't cure the grief and the violence of my dreams
The silence screams, sign a cross to heaven
Wonder if he hears me, well, I left a message
They tell me that you love me, that the soul is very precious
So why do I feel, that you made us, then you left us?
Crack, I hear the thunder rolling overhead
Cold stare, wind howls, kneeling down, by my bed
Nightmares and silence are my daily bread
Fighting the demons and darkness every night in my head
I'm sleep walking, I'm sleep talking, I'm out of place
I keep stalking, I keep crawling, I'm out of faith
I wish people would stop saying that it'll be OK,
If you've got nothing just stop talking and give it straight
Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Bo już ciemno i mgła
Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Bo już ciemno i mgła
Bo już ciemno i mgła
Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Bo już ciemno i mgła
(Stay, stay among us
Because it's already dark and misty)
(Stay, stay among us
Because it's already dark and misty)
Because it's already dark and misty)
(Stay, stay among us
Because it's already dark and misty)
I pack my bags, kiss my mom, and I'm out the door
Quit my job, one-way flight, why pretend anymore?
It's my life, I don't care who's keeping score
There's more than meets the eye when they say "blessed are the poor"?
Got twenty in my pocket and I've gone deep south
Met a man, seen famine, seen war he lost count
He said "son, open your eyes, don't open your mouth
Sometimes you only learn when you go without"
(Uh) I pack my bags and I journey east
Wander through the streets, talk to people that I meet
This family don't have much but we share a meal and tea
I don't speak their language but real love comes free!
Dawn breaks and we all climb the mountains through
As I climb, tears flow when I think of you
The kids shed a tear, they've been through it too
They don't speak a word so they hold my hand, maybe that's the truth

Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Bo już ciemno i mgła
Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Bo już ciemno i mgła
Bo już ciemno i mgła
Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Bo już ciemno i mgła
Cichy zapada zmrok
Idzie już ciemna noc
Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Tak jak byłeś za dnia
Idzie już ciemna noc
Zostań, zostań wśród nas
Tak jak byłeś za dnia
(Silent darkness falls
The night is already dark
Stay, stay among us
Just like you did during the day)
The night is already dark
Stay, stay among us
Just like you did during the day)
