In the dark, where weary faces glow Heavy shoulders draw down to the warmth of dying embers There is comfort and there is time, to remember...
A city seething, the masses screaming A chorus of urgent voices, noises, colour and light All drowned in an instant By the almighty roar of some sudden silence Horrible lack of motion, aghast pause Something monstrous kicked the city Like the dusty castle of a termite nest, it burst apart Deaf, dumb, and blind, we scattered.
The earth shook, we felt it in our bones It shook with our voices, our terror and motion
And the earth spoke, great steel towers groaned Like the maggots in a rotting carcass It burst apart And we spilled out
A writhing, flailing mass In a million directions we scattered Between the smouldering piles, the spitting pipes
And drains, that bled red We saw people, faces in the dust and smoke And we passed them by.
We turn our backs to the warmth Do not stoke the fire for the luxury of reflections In shattered glass, our bloody past Turn into the cold and dark, feel the hollow of our stomachs Let open wounds consume these wounds we will not feel
Expose us Make us fear And see how we all fall apart Stunned like birds in a cage We leapt and fell Thrashing our wings - we plummet still.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
