lyrics

2. No Eye On the Sparrow

On the outside of the looking glass
There’s a place I haven’t seen
A crimson sky above me and mud at my feet
Somewhere in the ether
These borders don’t exist
A book is just a book and a war is just a war
On the banks of tomorrow
There’s no eye on the sparrow

At the darkness in the corner of the memories you hold
I’m howling at the moon, I’m digging through the holes
There’s blood on the stone
And no eye on the sparrow

Fire and brimstone
For all you god fearing man
There’s a storm coming
The watchmen and their trumpets
Are not making a sound
When the sword is brought against the land
And the hammer is coming down
There’s no eye on the sparrow

You are not a stranger here
You are not a prophet
You pray for forgiveness then turn the other way
With two hands on the gun
and no eye on the sparrow

Fire and brimstone
For all you god fearing man
There’s a storm coming
The watchmen and their trumpets
Are not making a sound
When the sword is brought against the land
And the hammer is coming down
There’s no eye on the sparrow

Oh my sister, oh my brother, oh my son
Oh my mother, oh my father
What have we done?
Just look at we've done

Fire and brimstone
For all you god fearing man
There’s a storm coming
The watchmen and their trumpets
Are not making a sound
When the sword is brought against the land
And the hammer is coming down
There’s no eye on the sparrow
