Black As The Sky

Like a fool with blinders on

You view this world as ruled by kings

But what if they're puppets like you and I

And the world belongs to a few?

As they soon hit the peak, the top of a pyramid

They find themselves embracing the darkness

Sworn to silence

And the world is "in order" anew

Defining their ways right into your homes

With the old wicked lies

A game for the few - they tell who will live

They tell who will die

At the heart of their home

It's black as the sky

At the end of the day they say there is no way out

No peace in sight - none leaves alive

The world is on fire

And the weapon wrangler he thrives

Can you tell who they are?

Ready to follow trails?

Go follow the money

It'll lead you right, right to the darkest pit

And a rage over all that's denied

Defining their ways right into your homes

With the old wicked lies

A game for the few - they tell who will live

They tell who will die

You pray for some justice, but no one can hear

So you look to the skies

Are you one of the puppets?

Black as the sky

Looking up at the skyline

Towering blocks and shards of glass

Catch your eye

Bright as the stars on a dark moonless night

Black as the sky in the broad daylight

It's the end of the road

Here the darkness unfolds

Keep your eye on the light

And hold your head high

They're finding their way into your homes

But their face is unseen

Their heart is unknown

Defining their ways right into your homes

In the absence of light

A game for the few - they tell who will live

They tell who will die

You pray for some justice, but no one can hear

So you look to the skies

Are you one of the puppets?

Black as the sky
