oooh My eyes are running down1
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
My eyes are running down
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
oooh My eyes
Rest in peace to my friends who have lost themselves in the bottle
You who have succumbed remind me to be grateful
One took some pills, thought that he could fly
And that's why I am breaking since I know that he was about to become a father
So we are dreaming about buying some land and building a casa2
Forget every sorrow, forget the taste of the pavement
But every time we are about to celebrate we think about you who are missing.
oooh My eyes are running down
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
My eyes are running down
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
oooh My eyes
I'm sitting next to my friend who everyone calls a fool
He has just been set free and now he has his life in a plastic bag
He says the sun shines the strongest behind the darkest clouds
And he is happy for my sake, he has always been a supporter
So this is for the boy in the school halls
Who does want to go home because dad is sitting there with the needle
Says goodnight to a picture on the wall before he falls asleep
Because his mother lives behind a door that someone else locks
But time goes by and new people move in to the apartment community3
The city is raising the rent to remove any traces
So that is why I am singing, we can never forget, oh no
oooh My eyes are running down
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
My eyes are running down
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
(The eyes are running, the eyes are running down)
oooh My eyes
