Lyrics

What is that quiet?
All the guns fell silent
And smashed on the floor
-
Pieces lay there in peace
A million splinters at least
Which killed all the wars
-
Shards scattered like dust
Choking the generals with rust
And politicians just got bored
Juggling their demon cores
-
Let nature have the hour
Mankind forfeit his power
He doesn’t deserve it anymore
-
They looked like giant flowers
Blooming in the night sky
But they were just the result of man’s powers
To bring low to an all-time high
-
The guns broke on the ground
And with a deafening sound
Silence bloomed from every tree
-
And all the birds took wing
Missiles were buried with kings
Straight into the sea
-
The flares and shells disappeared
Flack and tracers once feared
Once busy growing the seeds
-
But these flowers didn’t bring new land
Only a gift of destruction bereft
Sent from man’s evil right hand
And received by his hungry left
