Beneath the Angry Sky |
Warplanes fly in terror waves |
Orders are withdrawn |
Horses rear with nostrils flared |
A child is stillborn |
All afternoon as hell pours down |
Families stand like rock |
Holding hands in fear and rage |
Reeling with the shock |
Who will answer to themselves |
The simple question why |
We must search within ourselves |
Beneath the angry sky |
Nothing moves, the town lies still |
Behind its ruined face |
A single oak defiant |
In the silent marketplace |
A school of shattered lives |
Inside the broken window panes |
The hope of all those burned inside |
Is all that still remains |
Who will answer to themselves |
The simple question why |
We must search within ourselves |
Beneath the angry sky |
A light of hope still burns behind |
A single shuttered door |
Despite its broken heart |
The town is stronger than before |
Who will answer to themselves |
The simple question why |
We must search within ourselves |
Beneath the angry sky |
