Black Rain

(album: 16.6 (Before The Devil Knows You're Dead) - 2009)

As I watched the rising sun
A walking shadow on the run
There's no hope and there's no anger, I'm defenseless
I stand alone out in the cold
Ten more miles on desert sand
The Earth still shakes I hear tank shells explode

Is it just a dead memory
Stranded in the thirty third latitude degree
A few words of truth could never lie
Who will kill me I'm a refuge alive

In and out I watch the sky explode
Enough our mission's sold
The flushing black rain kills is all
In and out I watch the sky explode
Enough our mission's sold
Even if the black rain kills us all

As men of honour and belief
We never knew our enemies
There's no reason that's worth dying for
As I hear the silence brake
A so called fight, a big mistake
Or was it just to see another thousand die

Under friendly fire of our own crew
Another day will never come true

In and out I watch the sky explode
Enough our mission's sold
The flushing black rain kills us all
In and out I watch the sky explode
Enough our mission's sold
Even if the black rain kills us all
