Crying |
CRY… DON'T YOU |
I got off a train about midday into a yellow taxi cab |
The station was deserted, the taxi driver said |
‘Where you want to go the Bar, Hotel, looking for a place to go?' |
I saw no-one who knew me, nor no-one did I know |
I went down the mall, to Mary below, to Blackbull shop |
The man said ‘My dear, she died last year' and I said I will not stop |
The sky it was all bleeding, the rain cloud crashing down |
But what I saw that moment could never be undone |
We saw people drawn out, nobody you will steal |
Statesman sitting there at the table, unharmed by fire or fear |
Oh, said his name so boldly, the others followed on |
What I had seen that morning could never be undone |
Everything was gone, gone, everything was gone |
Everything was gone, gone, everything was gone |
A boy playing with a gun there, colder than the air |
A bill to give him, gave him, felt he was not there |
The skins they were all boiling, and the heap rose 10 miles high |
I saw a priest praying for me, shockwave in the sky, sky, sky |
Shockwave in the sky |
