Someone Sleeps Lyrics

Yellow moon rice
And the shadows are so long
Comes as no suprise
I hear another good night song
And the echoes
In those hills
A random rhythm
The silence fills

And someone deals in pain
And someone deals in power
And someone sleeps tonight (forever)

Ragged children left to play
Fear, then hear the sound
Run, run, oh run away
Stumbling feet on dusty clay
In the rockets glaring red
A weeping mother bows her head
'Cause someone sleeps tonight, forever

And in the flame's of inferno
Consuming human flesh and soul
Innocence becomes a stranger
Despair a burning coal
An old man's eyes are vacant
His hand is open, still
Children wander in the ruined streets
Wrehe grief roams, never filled
Sometimes at night they hear
The wind of a past they cannot change
And in the morning silence
Tell me what goodness will remain?
The bitter cup is filled once more
A bloody history pains this land
They try to seal a tomb that's empty
While they build the cross again
