It's written on the wall
_____
You can hear it on the tram
_____
You can see it in all eyes
_____
It won't take much longer
_____
And it's really great news
_____
It's really great news
_____
That the sun and all the stars are lies and not real
_____
And what seemed so terribly important is erased and canceled
_____
And that's great news
_____
That's great news
_____
Friends become strangers and no memory can come along
_____
And all the time you wanted to save
_____
Crumbles slowly in your hand
_____
And that's great news
_____
That's great news
_____
Say goodbye to the one you always wanted to be
_____
If there's still something you want to say, do it quick
_____
There's not much time
_____
Because the clouds are getting dark
_____
And the storm is drawing near
_____
Hear the distant dogs howl
_____
See the last starlings flee before the end
Because everything's going to change
_____
And it was high time
_____
Because the rust is creeping toward your eyes
_____
And the shadow gains ground
_____
On everything you once found so beautiful
_____
On all the prizes you received
_____
When the new sun rises
_____
The streets are wide and empty
_____
And in the morning we'll be complete strangers again
_____
And when I meet you again
_____
I'll finally be someone else
_____
I'll be honest, strong and real and true and good
_____
And then we'll drink the rain
And then we'll eat the wind
_____
And then we'll be friends again
_____
Just friends again like before
_____
And that's great news
_____
That's great news
