Carrie Newcomer - A Mean Kind of Justice lyrics

There's a ring around the moon There's a chill in the air There's a mean kind of justice Coming down, coming down Angels wring their hands, they put ashes on their heads There's a mean kind of justice coming down It don't ever stop a thing An eye for an eye, a tit for tat And I've never seen nobody truly satisfied by that It just rolls around your head eating holes in your heart There's a mean kind of justice coming down There is a goodness on this earth That will not die, will not die It bears all, and seen it all, and still it survives And I know we have failed But I've seen that we can fly There's a goodness on this earth that will not die Oh no, oh no, forgiveness never sleeps But the devil wants its due and says human life is cheap And till we give up any hope we could ever change the past Then at last, then at last... There's a ring around the moon There's a chill on the breeze There's somebody with their hands clasped Down on their knees And angels hold their breath for what might set them free There's a mean kind of justice coming down
