Siren Music

Lyrics

Throats parched with empty words Like wadis athirst for God Siren music, bow-headed flags Dead lies a city loose in the land Baptised in morning dew The whole deadened city wakes up anew So what truth can I believe In a world that wants to be deceived I'll just save my own soul And let the world go straight to hell Where angels in straitjackets dwell For I will not die for no land The land will die for me And no God will write my biography Our songs will be heard no more We're old enough to go die in a war No blood upon our door Nameless we lay dead on the floor Magic carpets carry our souls Moonwards a city rises and falls Her womb filled with clouds Blackened saffron covers the ground So what truth can I believe In a world that wants to be deceived I'll just save my own soul And let the world go straight to hell Where angels in straitjackets dwell For I will not cry for no girl The girl will cry for me And no God will write my biography Our songs will be heard no more We're old enough to go die in a war No blood upon our door Nameless we lay dead on the floor Moonlit chandeliers darken and fall The walls that guard our soul, impregnable Our songs will be heard no more We're old enough to go die in a war No blood upon our door Nameless we lay upon the floor
