Scarecrows In The Sky lyrics

Scarecrows in the sky!
 Spluttering decay through the firmament
 Broken winged swans melt to meet painful horizons
 As they cry

 Wildly leaping down the bleeding mountain
 Tormented by the grey ghost of explosions
 Becoming one with the furnace of war...

 ...firing fatal rounds into the buildings
 Black angels swooping in and around the city
 And dancing with the war

 Constructing a bleak kingdom of corpses
 Perching to drink from the skull of innocence
 Dim lights stray

 And cast creeping light around the shadows

 The scythes of justice have been crippled
 From scraping at the walls of a bombshell waiting
 To be ignited

 Embers shimmer through th'infernal chasm
 Tormented by the grey ghost of explosions
 And dancing with the war

 Firing fatal rounds into the buildings
 Black angels swooping in and around the city
 And dancing with the war

 ...and with the flesh's eyes I saw the divine
 Beyond mysterious worlds, witnessing all atrocity
 With no terror in its inward glancing eyes
 Clotted blood from a spilt cup of bitterness
 Has been ignored

 Growing, until they reach the sky
 Billows of smoke clawing at the stars
 I saw the moon as a tyrant
 Peering down with mocking distant light
 A fearful glowing, from the limbs of victims

 Seizuring pyres of troops in ashes
 Quivering human refuse in the wind
 Still they ride
 Upon mechanical murder machines
 Sailing over skeletal seas
 Only to fight fire...
 With blood!
