Coming of Age

(Jannis)


Years are made of sand
Wait a second and the fringe of tide will haul them away
Yet I’ll stay up all night
Dress in black and watch my silhouette peel from day


I am the eye
The eye of the storm
And every time that I look out for something
I see nothing at all


All around the rows are starting to whirl
And while I’m watching it makes me whirl within


I feel it coming like a cold
In the pouring rain
I feel it sneaking through a backdoor into my brain
I feel it walking a floor
I never walked before
No one told me what it was, and no one told me how to make it go away
How to make it go away
How to make it go away
How to make it go away


No one told me how to use it
So I figured that I have to look for my own way
Why don’t it seem so easy
To live out what is urging to be left out anyway


Where I can put my trust I cannot tell
And might those made-up roads make up my road to hell


I feel it coming like a cold
In the pouring rain
I feel it sneaking through a backdoor into my brain
I feel it walking a floor
I never walked before
No one told me what it was, and no one told me how to make it go away
How to make it go away
How to make it go away
How to make it go away


I feel it coming like a cold
In the pouring rain
I feel it sneaking through a backdoor into my brain
I feel it walking a floor
I never walked before
No one told me what it was


I feel it coming like a cold
In the pouring rain
I feel it sneaking through a backdoor into my brain
I feel it walking a floor
I never walked before
No one told me what it was
No one told me what it was
No one told me what it was, and no one told me how to make it go away
How to make it go away
How to make it go away
How to make it go away
