Three quite calm nights went by

Merely the silence before a new tempest arrived

All hell breaks loose on night fourThe children can now hear how

Father is whipping their squealing mother

With his leather belt while she falls to the floor

The fear and tension is rising by the day

The boy falls asleep but his sister is kept awake

By having serious thoughts of the two of them to escape

Tick-tack! It′s time to go!

For there's a crow... Tick! Tack... Ticking on her window

She has no explanation why she has a terrible feeling

That someone is going to die

Next morning they leave everything behind

They bring some clothes, water and bread

They run with fear

But without hesitation and regret

Without looking back

Darkness has fallen

Two children are afraid and lost in the night

They walk on an old road when a car appears

And they′re too slow to hide

Goddamn! He found them!

Goddamn! He found them!

Goddamn! He found them...

His eyes glow like those of SATAN himself!

He's cursing, pounding, screaming!

Throws his son into the car

Hits his little daughter so hard!

Tell me the truth. I know this was you

But no more, little whore

I'll punish you like I′ve never done before

Goddamn! Goddamn!

His eyes glow like those of SATAN himself!

They get beaten, locked up and mistreated

There′s no place like home!

And she opens her eyes after another brutal night

Weeping wind whining hopeless tones

And there's no sunshine, it′s still dark outside

The living room is trashed

There are bloodstains and pieces of glass everywhere

Father still passed out on the couch

Where's mother? And why is there water dripping down the stairs?

She walks up the staircase and sees her little brother

Holding on to the doorpost of the bathroom

As if he had just seen a ghost

His body is frozen, eyes wide open

He does not react to her voice

What′s wrong? A tear rolls down his pale face

And then!

The sight of their dead mother

Floating in light red water flowing from the bathtub

She had left the water faucet open

Taken an overdose of pills and slit both her wrists

No! She is dead! She is dead!

Mother is dead!

Nooooo!

Mama, why? Mother, goodbye

Mommy, why? Oh mother

(Goodbye...)

When crows tick on windows

Oh, when crows tick on windows...
