They're passing the old mill
At the rising of the sun
Smoking, waiting, no one saying too much
At the lake someone thinks he was here before
And the water shines like silver
One leans on a fence,
thinking about his home About the times when life seemed endless
Years of hunger
and nights of dreamless sleep
Now he's a stranger in the broken land
Pain is washed away on this sunny day
Life is washed away,
no one is to stay
From
the distance,
young women wave at them
It fills their hearts with laughter
The first smiles after years of pain
And they dive into the water
And they dive into the water
This shining beauty,
it's almost like a dream
That only lasts for a few hours
Their bodies are so pale and the lake they look the same
With their souls like broken flowers
With their souls like broken flowers
With their souls like broken flowers
Pain is washed away on this sunny day
Life is washed away,
no one is to stay
Pain is washed away on this sunny day
Life is washed away,
no one is to stay
