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 skyAll praises lead to silence
As the beast mark stands revealed
on the bearded ancient prophet
is dragged of by his heelsAnd 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 gameand pile up their dead
And the flashing sign spells Zyklon
as it burns above each head
But the words are all spelled backwardsand 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 eyesAnd 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
