In Dread Response - 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!
