No Voices In The Sky

(album: Play It Forward - 2022)

Nobody gives a damn
About anybody else
Think everybody should feel
The way they feel themselves
Rich men think that happiness is
A million dollar bills
So how come half of them
OD on sleeping pills

Eye for eye, tooth for tooth
You know just what I mean
What's the use to cry for help
When no one hears you scream
No one hears you scream

No voices in the sky
Confusion blinds the eye
Can't take it with you when you die
No voices in the sky

The ones who dedicate the flags
To make you brave
They also consecrate
The headstone on your grave
Ritual remembrance
When no one knows your name
Don't help a single widow
Learn to fight the pain

Eye for eye, tooth for tooth
You know just what I mean
What's the use to cry for help
If no one hears you scream
No one hears you scream

No voices in the sky
Confusion blinds the eye
Can't take it with you when you die, no
No voices in the sky

Politicians kissing babies for good luck
TV preachers sell salvation for a buck
You don't need no golden cross
To tell you right from wrong
The world's worst murderers
Were those who saw the light

Eye for eye, tooth for tooth
You know just what I mean
What's the use to cry for help
When no one hears you scream
No one hears you scream

No voices in the sky
Confusion blinds the eye
Can't take it with you when you die
No voices in the sky

No voices in the sky
Confusion blinds the eye
Can't take it with you when you die (hell no)
No voices in the sky (not again)
