The Deviants - Child of the Sky lyrics

She walks in the teeth of the city where its neon ways are warm through all the laughing angels, and still she comes to harm But watch still and waiting you'll never see her cry For the orphan of the earth is the child of the sky All praises lead to silence As the beast mark stands revealed on the bearded ancient prophet is dragged of by his heels And they all crowd the platform and hope to see her die But the orphan of the earth is the child of the sky She laughs as they play their guilt game and pile up their dead And the flashing sign spells Zyklon as it burns above each head But the words are all spelled backwards and there is no use to try For the orphan of the earth is the child of the sky There never was no rainbow ask the preacher in disguise As he lays aside his shotgun and covers up his eyes And the hunchbacks proposition explains the reason why The orphan of the earth is the child of the sky In the end the antique picture cannot force the truth to tell and the days each grey and mindless form a private hell but don't ask any questions and you won't hear a lie As the Orphan of the earth is the child of the sky
