Disappeared
We were brothers there, we were running awayIn a mountain town on the other side of the worldAnd I remember the night as clear as dayI wanted to leave but you had to stayYou were high on romanceAnd on a one-on-one with FateYou stepped outside just for a momentFor a cigarette and to watch the starsAnd that was all you saidAnd one by one we came outside, shouting for you, shouting for youThe laughter swallowed by the trees, shouting for youDo the gods take the children, do the gods take the childrenThat belong to them, that belong to them?Do the gods take their children, do the gods take their childrenTheir mark upon you, their mark upon youThe hours turned to days and the days began to stretchAnd the shepherds combed the hillsThe way they search for straying sheepBefore they're taken by the wolvesAnd I tried to think about who was therePut pictures of you everywhere but there were only questionsAnd the local police shrugged their shouldersSaid the files are all still open, empty pages, nothing moreLetras de cancionesDo the gods take the children, do the gods take the childrenThat belong to them, that belong to them?Do the gods take their children, do the gods take their childrenTheir mark upon you, their mark upon youAnd for a while in hometown streetThere were candles lit in every windowBut soon it dwindled just to oneAnd the frantic phone-calls became shorterAnd no one speaking English nowAnd nothing much to tell anyhowAnd the wilderness we carry with usIt's like a dream of innocenceAnd the gods take their children, and the gods take their childrenTheir mark upon you, their mark upon youDo the gods take their children, do the gods take their childrenI miss you, I miss you
