For your soul from what is known Of pulling blood from city stones
Now I know my tears alone Won't bring the peace to danger zones
Another new life today Was born to sing amazing grace
Metal birds fill up the sky Songless birds with vacant eyes
North wind blows a warning soul That stirs my mind and shakes my soul
She says, oh, that's all right, children With your wars and religions
She says, oh, that's all right, children But my body is melting down
Gone, I am gone I am going through
Come, I am come Will you come?
Come to me
Shadows fall on streets tonight Because of darkness needing light
We revel in our chemistry
No need to speak of tragedy
Run my fingers through my heart Unbraid the challenge for this star
And reach to love without my spine My skin's too soft to stand this fight
Gone, I am gone I am going through
Come, I am come Will you come?
And I'm trying to come too
Love lingers over all our heads
Let's pull love down for once and be fed
If not for you, well, then for me Please promise, love, you'll always sing
Sing, sing your song Your heart will sing for you
Oh, that's all right, children With your war on the poor and women
She says, oh, that's all right, children But my body is your body
And I'm melting down
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Come to me
Oh, that's all right, children
Oh, that's all right, children
Children
