Lyrics:

Here they come
Bearing their perfectly white flags
Down the road
With smiles glowing in the sun

Open doors
They quickly step into the empty house
Made of stone
But nothing is what it used to be

And you want to stay away
There is nothing for you here

No distance is too safe
They’re familiar strangers
Flying on the wings of moths
Straight to the flame

So rip the flags for tourniquets
As the poison is leaking
From the cracks in the walls

Black cloud, hanging over your head
Black cloud, scaring the sun away

It follows you down,
It follows you down,
It follows you down,
Spiralling down to the ground

What was once invisible,
Now becomes plain for all to see
There’s nothing civil
When you are your own worst enemy
Unbearable weight
Soaking up your bones in the cold rain
It was such a fine day

It follows you down,
It follows you down,
It follows you down,
Spiralling down to the ground

Black, black, black cloud
