Lately I'm seeing the wind through my window
From all that I'm hearing, I'm hardly alone
I've noticed it's easy enough to ignore though
Not like the sky which constantly drones
Ashes ashes we all fall down
Your peace is outdated, your god has gone mute
And yesterday's ally attacks us tomorrow
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
The firestorms wait to reduce us to corpses
To one day decay to the oil we craved
The worth of humanity lucid to everyone
When nothing around has a chance to be saved
Ashes ashes we all fall down
Your peace is outdated, your god has gone mute
And yesterday's ally attacks us tomorrow
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
The whistling missiles will harmonize beautiful
And me, I can't wait for to hear what they sing
In chaos we trust and we'll march to it dutiful
Don't matter color of flag that you bring
Ashes ashes we all fall down
Your peace is outdated, your god has gone mute
And yesterday's ally attacks us tomorrow
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
From all that I'm hearing, I'm hardly alone
I've noticed it's easy enough to ignore though
Not like the sky which constantly drones
Ashes ashes we all fall down
Your peace is outdated, your god has gone mute
And yesterday's ally attacks us tomorrow
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
The firestorms wait to reduce us to corpses
To one day decay to the oil we craved
The worth of humanity lucid to everyone
When nothing around has a chance to be saved
Ashes ashes we all fall down
Your peace is outdated, your god has gone mute
And yesterday's ally attacks us tomorrow
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
The whistling missiles will harmonize beautiful
And me, I can't wait for to hear what they sing
In chaos we trust and we'll march to it dutiful
Don't matter color of flag that you bring
Ashes ashes we all fall down
Your peace is outdated, your god has gone mute
And yesterday's ally attacks us tomorrow
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
If we all wear a target maybe they won't know where to shoot
