[Interlude]                / [Verse 3] In the heat of the day the sun will beat you down So you better protect yourself for sure         Watch out for the wind that’s bound to come around Some people can’t take it anymore.          [Chorus] ’Cause all of the prophets and all of their debts Will soon be forgiven but don’t you forget That all of the profits they robbed you to get       Will not save their souls. [Outro]                /

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque des moments de turbulence et de désillusion dans le monde, où les aspirations se transforment en désespoir. Elle décrit un paysage où la chaleur du jour et la frénésie nocturne rappellent que tout peut s'effondrer, symbolisé par le vent qui menace de renverser ceux qui ne se préparent pas. Les paroles mettent en lumière un contraste entre les promesses des prophètes et la réalité de ceux qui sont exploités, soulignant que les richesses matérielles acquises de manière douteuse ne garan-tissent pas le salut. On ressent ainsi une réflexion sur la fragilité de la vie et l’importance de veiller sur soi en période de crise.
