What to do, when
Everything in life is upside down.
Sparkling from the corner,
Carried by the breeze,
The tram departed,
So now on foot.
To warm hands, and the door
Is locked with two locks.
To look through the window for a long time,
Counting the clouds.
To write poems for the last time,
And then, to turn the gas in the kitchen on.
To write poems for the last time,
And then, to light the gas in the kitchen up.
To warm wine, to call to all of us.
This secret will die with us,
This terrifying secret will die with us,
This terrifying secret will die with us.
The song is dedicated to American poet Sylvia Plath, who committed suicide in the same way as the song describes.
