Sting - down, down, down

이 노래는 누군가가 떠날 때 느끼는 고통과 두려움을 다룬다
비가 내리며 상황이 무너지고, 그 소리는 항상 기다려온 고통의 시작을 알린다
마지막으로 모든 소통이 단절된 채로 도움을 요청하는 절망적인 외침을 담고 있다

Strange, when you leave me, rain comes down, down, down
When you withdraw from me, towers come tumbling down, down, down
Here comes the sound that I've been waiting for
The sound that tells me when you're walking out my door
Rob me blind, defenseless, my heart sinks down, down, down
I can't wave, I'm drowning and sinking fast, down, down, down, down
Here comes the sound I've been expecting all these years
Here comes the sound of everything I've ever feared
Here comes the sound, the floors below me disappear
Here comes the sound, I force my fingers in my ears
I'm drinking from this bitter cup
The only place that's left is up
I could not fall no further than this, down, down, down, down
Here comes the sound of someone crying in the rain
Here comes the sound of someone pouring out their pain
All lines of communication, down, down, down, down
My forces in retreat and running from this battleground
Here comes the sound I've never heard before
The sound that tells me when you're walking out my door
Here comes the sound of someone calling out for aid
Here comes the sound of someone falling
