|
Holding up the bank in Belgrade |
|
She lost her mind between the battle lines. |
|
And the telephone rings. A bell rung out |
|
As they talk about 16 kids gone in a school yard. |
|
The papers read, she shakes her head. |
|
And I said in the darkest night, |
|
Come the darkest days. In the worst of ways. |
|
Close that town for good, the plagues here. |
|
The skin from beneath all the way to the mouths that feed. |
|
Then they're filtered clear, the boys will try. |
|
In the judge's eye. Get out while you can, |
|
She tells me you're wasting time. That's fine. |
|
In the darkest night |
|
Come the darkest days, in the worst of ways. |
|
From the silent cry, to the naked eye, |
|
She waves goodbye. |
|
Holding up the bank in Belgrade |
|
I played a tune, when, how, did it happen soon? |
|
She said now we find a way to make it down |
|
The place smokes and the palace burns |
|
And the world keeps turning around, and around yeah. |
|
Around, and it's bringing me down. |
|
In the darkest night, |
|
Come the darkest days. |
|
And the last bell rings out. |
