1000 Cities Falling Pt. 1 by The Sadies Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2004

Hatred turns a godless Earth
Where a person's life is worth
How many people and possessions they control

Salvation for the souls forsaken
Were betrayed by those who led our
Nation in the war to end all wars

From above the storms put out the dawn's early light
Now both the darkness and the rain
Fall day and night

The angels killed the devils
Hung them in the streets and reveled
In the blood-lust and the fires of revenge

(Instrumental break)

We begged for mercy from the skies
And pleaded for the sun to rise;
We watched the fallen heavens turn to ice
We'll try and stay alive
Until we see the blessed day
When our sins are taken all away

On a dark and frozen land
Lie one thousand cities damned
That circle round and round a dying sun
