"A City In The Skies" lyrics

"A City In The Skies"

A black widow hangs
Hangs from a tree
Marked with the cross
A symbol of concern

Under the cover of night
A powerful play
Rolling into the city
Wild beasts of prey

In a garden of green
Cascading streams
A thousand little screens
The killing machines

What are they thinking of
What is going on
What in the world
Is happening now
What are they thinking of
What is going on
All the little children
Have gone insane

Break the window
Get into the house
Wipe the memory
We were never here

Icons will fall
Once and for all
A heart-shaped piece of wood
St. Catherine by the well

The birds are in the air
The streets have new names
The war doors are open
A storm is coming

What are they thinking of
What is going on
What in the world
Is happening now
What are they thinking of
What is going on
All the little children
Have gone insane
