You didn't get up from the bed
Many weeks passed
Rarely the sun shined inside through the window
It was autumn
I remember that you didn't
Smile when I carried leaves next to your bed
The days crawled
Very slowly
The north wind blew leaves away
Beside your bed
I pretended to be a hare
By bouncing I tried to make you laugh
[Chorus]
I hid in a raspberry bush
I hoped that god would have a cure
I got angry at school, in P.E. class
When the guys claimed that death leans on father
There wasn't a flag in the flagpole
Even though you had a birthday and guests came over
Mother combed your hair neatly
Asked the guests to come to the table to eat cake
[Chorus]
We didn't go to the countryside on weekends
A wave hit the drawings off the dock
I watched news when Sirkus Finlandia
Ended their tour on Auroran kenttä
I hid in a raspberry bush
I hoped that fear would go away or even further away
You didn't get up from the bed
Many weeks passed
The house stood quietly, the ground started to freeze
[Chorus]
I hid in a raspberry bush
