退烧

With secrets hidden in garment folds, night after night, out the door

All hearts witness, yet pronounce not a thing

Exchanging tidings

The city’s moon beams, they wear service caps

The city’s moon beams, they wear service caps

This feeling is oddly familiar

Like any man’s experience on any day

The ice and snow melt away

Thinking one can breathe again

Then feeling the danger

Is he true or is he not?

Without a sound

That smoke begins to lift

The men in black bring forth an assignment

One has waited far too long at the stop

He thinks to himself, “this time around,” he’s “going to run out of luck”

The men in black bring orders

The men in black, chests filled with justice

O the men in black

In black with no problems

She said “no, oh no, I can’t take this”

In that kind of tone carrying acceptance in refusal

A sheet of white paper, craving the newest, most gorgeous picture

Sometimes, embracing life takes a bit of courage

Ice and snow silently melt

Ice and snow devoid of trace

Everybody seems to have forgotten

The man in black has departed

The new world and the old collide

And the new one is enshrouded in ring upon ring of mist

But within the labyrinth, still, are brothers in black

O she said “recently I’ve dropped, dropped down in a rush”

Whether large on the scene or even small ghosts, you better keep your distance

She said, and she knew who, who and who

And that’s exactly what it was, just an undeserved reputation all the same, ah

There goes another summer

Another night after another, out the door

[02:55.14Everyone whispering in each other’s ears

Talking about who’s met the men in black

The city’s moon beams, they wear service caps

The deep sleeping gaps, they startle you awake

This feeling is oddly familiar

Like any man’s experience on any day

The ice and snow melt away

Thinking one can breathe again

Then feeling the danger

Is he true or is he not?

Without a sound

That smoke begins to lift
