Atomic Opera - Justice lyrics

Black bird with a broken wing Is on the side of the freeway The preacher says "Don't worry" But he won't fly away (oh, glory) Lights flash, sirens scream A Mardi Gras procession Everyone's in trouble When everyone prays When all the people raise fists in the air Cry out in anger for things to be fair When I pray "have mercy"I will never ask for justice Dark night in my soul I scale the walls of doubt In a cage of faith And there's no way out In these days of unknowing you I stand so close to alone But I will not stand For their black parade And all the people raise fists in the air Cry out in anger for things to be fair When I pray "have mercy"Last thing I would ever want is justice When I pray "have mercy"I will never ask And all the people raise fists in the air Cry out in anger for things to be fair When all the people I hear everywhere Cry out in anger for things to be fair When I pray "have mercy"Last thing I would ever want is justice When I pray "have mercy"I pray that I will never ask (for justice)
