作曲 : Meiburg | |
When the rooks were laid in piles by the sides of the road | |
Crashing into the aerials tangled in the laundry line | |
And gathered in a field they were burned in a feathering pyre | |
With their cold, black eyes | |
When the swallows fell from the eaves and the gulls from the spires | |
The starlings in their millions will feed on the ground where they lie | |
The ambulance men said there's nowhere to flee for your life | |
So we stay inside | |
And we'll sleep until the world of man is paralyzed | |
Oh, the falconer awakes to the sound of the bells | |
Overhead and southbound | |
They are leaving his life | |
And each empty cage just rings in his heart like a bell | |
Underneath these cold stars | |
In this trembling night | |
And he cries, | |
"Amen let the kingdom come tonight | |
Let this dream be realized" |
