Bob Dylan?

When Gods fall

A legend you were, a monument,

What happend tonight I can’t understand,

You were hiding your face, you cawed like a crow,

it was in Rio, I was in your show,

I remembered I prayed let him not be you,

I said to myself, this can’t bet true,

When you tried to sing „How does it feel“

Than it was about the time to reveal,

how you sang the song that said it all,

and this is what happens – when gods fall.

.

You did not knock on heavens door,

none of the songs, they were waiting for,

no Tambourine Man, no Hurricane,

o yes the times haved changed since than,

How does it feel, I asked myself,

when a legend now destroys himself,

Yes when you sang „How does it feel“,

it was about the time to reveal,

no words of welcome, 100 minutes was all,

and this is what happens – when gods fall.

.

You did not connect, you were like a wall,

and this is what happens – when gods fall.
