Someone Sleeps

Lyrics

Yellow moon rise And the shadows are so long Comes as no surprise I hear another night song And the echoes in those hills A random rhythm the silence fills And someone deals in pain Someone deals in power And someone sleeps tonight Someone deals in pain Someone deals in power And someone sleeps tonight Ragged children left to play Fear, then hear the sound Run, run, oh, run away Stumbling feet on dusty clay In the rocket's glaring red A weeping mother hangs her head 'Cause someone sleeps tonight, forever Someone deals in pain And someone deals in power And someone sleeps tonight Oh, someone deals in pain Someone deals in power And someone sleeps tonight, forever And in the flame's inferno Consuming human flesh and soul Innocence becomes a stranger Despair a burning coal An old man's eyes are vacant His calloused hand's open, still Children wander in the ruins Where grief roams, never filled Sometimes at night they hear The wind of a past they cannot change In the morning silence Tell me, what goodness will remain? The bitter cup is filled once more A bloody history paints this land They try to seal a tomb that's empty While they build the cross again And someone deals in pain Someone deals in power And someone sleeps tonight Someone deals in pain Someone deals in power And someone sleeps tonight Forever, forever Forever, forever Forever
