juanita stein - old world lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
images of broken glass floating through the sky
images of crumbling stone shaped like you and i
images of ancient light streaming through the pines
images of ashes, ashes piled high

[verse 2]
images of red+stained glass piercing my soul
images of poetry penetrate these walls
images of ghettos where my ancestors once cried
images of ashes, ashes piled high

[pre+chorus]
we crossed the border into europе, ’96
i stood in every house of god with a crucifix
you criеd bl++dy american with my ripped jeans
as i walked the crooked graves of prague at sixteen

[chorus]
the old world (the old world)
the old world (the old world)
the old world, ashes piled high

[bridge]
do you hear the sirens ring out like a nightmare?
do you hear the sirens, an homage to warfare?
can you hear construction in the aftermath nearby?
burying the ashes, ashes piled high
[outro]
the old world
the old world
ashes piled high
