john g. mcdaid - heaven underground lyrics

[verse 1]
heaven/is falling
the angels/lie on sidewalks in the rain
the serpent/calling
up from the lost world/buried deep within our brain
and the saints have piled up in the streets
their sacred blood staining the sheets
their haloes and bones have been sold
pried loose before the bodies were cold
and the rainbow disappears with the dawn
and there’s nothing left to carry us on
and there is no salvation to be found
now that heaven’s underground

[verse 2]
darkness/descending
unending/as the chaos runs its course
we grind on/pretending
nothing/left us but remorse
and the voices that speak in our dream
offer comforts as cold as they seem
as faces fade off in the noise
and the lost take the hand that destroys
and there are no stories left to tell
now that earth inhabits h-ll

[bridge]
it’s forever
and it’s worse than it appears
this brave new world
is just the sum of all your fears
and each day
follows senseless on the last
with no way
out of the demon haunted past…
(“dingir pazuzu qatu dingir ishtar”)

[verse 3]
the heroes/are dead now
their bodies/scattered ashes in the deep
the prophet/unread now
in the sound and the fury of reason’s final sleep
and all along the roads to the dome
the dead appear to carry us home
and the angels have begun now to rise
their screaming held back in the skies
and the world is just the walls of a cave…
as we look up the sides of the grave…
and there is no salvation to be found
now that heaven’s underground

[outro]
ahh oooh
ahh oooh
ahh oooh
