Translation
Bilingual
In the coldest winter storm in years she scraped ice from her window
Every breath drew circles on the icy frozen glass
She gazed at the trees as snow raged through the skies
With slight unease it creeped up in her eyes
As she went downstairs and made herself some tea
The man in her backyard got up from his knees
He'd been watching her for days in the shelter of his car
Seen her tread through the corridors in her dressing gown
Like an eagle he had spotted every weakness from afar
Like the basement window left unlocked in the yard
As he snuck through the back he could hear her softly sing
An old lullaby it sent shivers down his spine
I had seen the cops go through the house on Hillsbury Lane
When I got back home my parents told me with great pain
That my brother was found guilty of murdering the girl
That had lived there alone he'd done it for the thrill
Since then late at night I see flashes in my head
How he hits her again and again
So is life, it takes for all it gives
And being sorry doesn't change a thing
So is life now, it ends where it begins
In the dark black ink
It's alright now she no longer feels a thing
So why am I sorry for my brother's sins
It's alright now soon we'll all forget
Till it happens again
Until it happens again
