Someone Is Knocking Lyrics - Veni Domine

[Music / Lyrics by Fredrik Ohlsson] 

It's been one day or two 

I can't really remember 

Watching the world alone 

Behind my iron curtain 

Waiting for the silence 

Protected, safe from violence 

Through streets made of stone 

Souls cry, dies beyond 

Knowledge of the quest 

Where grief comes to rest 

Poor life spins the thread 

Things remain unsaid 

Despising my sorrow, this life I have chosen 

In fear of what could be 

Sometimes I'm aware 

Of someone standing close to me 

A presence, one caress 

Who knows my loneliness 

Someone is knocking on my door 

Someone is knocking on my door 

It's been one day or two 

I can't really remember 

In hope the masses rise 

But who's the hand that guide them 

Longing for reliance 

This frightened soul of mine 

Turns wistful in the sight of grace 

The presence, the caress 

Will make my heart confess 

Someone is knocking on my door 

Someone, a serpent from before 

Yet someone, the lament for the poor 

Just one, will rise and one will fall 

Someone is knocking on my door
