Tocotronic - The New Strangeness lyrics

I was told the time had come And a strangeness had begun And everything that once was here All at once will disappear And before the morning breaks Many voices will be raised And though no one is certain yet Everyone is sure to fall in step Well nobody knows when and how it will come And whether you win or become undone You want to be prepared You've put some money away And canceled the meeting on thursday You're ready and willed to lead a different life But at the moment it seems no direction is right It is never very easy from one day to the next You have to be sure that the dog is fed And somewhere it has already begun Even where I may go you could still walk in the sun But then no one knew what it could be But there were already signs and here and there you could see It was not only in places that it appeared There were times of day when it was clear In the hours after the sun went down Change had come and it was all around If the truth be told we can not deny That what we used to hide from now we welcome inside And it was understood that best unconsciously That something's unfold and something's happening And only just now has it become Too much to ignore that something has begun The signs have been clear the time is here And now a strangeness has appeared And I lie in bed and I have to admit I have a strong urge to turn around again Outside where the night blends with the daylight See things coming through and it concerns me too
