When the roof collapses over our heads
Before the rooster
Crows he wakes
Lighting a candle
Finds his way
Kisses his wife
Before he says goodbye
Quiet and cold
He leaves his bed
Goes through the valley
To the hills
Walk by the path
Climbs up the cliffs
Freezing hands
His boots could easily slip
God should protect
This miners way
Message boy
There's been a fall
Same old folks again
Where's my dad?
Young Marion said
I'm afraid he's late again
That's all our life's about
Down there candle's
Not enough
Everything's darkened
They feel trapped
Pray in vain
They still believe he's there
God never listens
Never cares
Boy came back
With no good news
Rescue teams
Have failed
They could not
Reach them in time
They found deedless bodies instead
That's not what life's about
That's not what life's about
Crows he wakes
Lighting a candle
Finds his way
Kisses his wife
Before he says goodbye
Quiet and cold
He leaves his bed
Goes through the valley
To the hills
Walk by the path
Climbs up the cliffs
Freezing hands
His boots could easily slip
God should protect
This miners way
Message boy
There's been a fall
Same old folks again
Where's my dad?
Young Marion said
I'm afraid he's late again
That's all our life's about
Down there candle's
Not enough
Everything's darkened
They feel trapped
Pray in vain
They still believe he's there
God never listens
Never cares
Boy came back
With no good news
Rescue teams
Have failed
They could not
Reach them in time
They found deedless bodies instead
That's not what life's about
That's not what life's about
