Machina Lyrics
unleash the armageddon
so all the children go to heaven
i sit by quiet still with thier pictures on my eyes
you'll draw the guns you're given
write down the words as written
and never disturb the presence of resurrection crutch
and it's about time
it's about drawing near
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
descend the darkened stairways
make hate with plastic playmates
and fire out remaining traces of your self esteem
mainline the deepest secrets
lick clean the dirty fingers
i am a stranger to you as you are to yourself
and it's about time
it's about fear
blue skies bring tears
don't you want me
as i awake the city sigh
we'll watch the seasons die
blue skies bring tears
take me inside your body
cover me with your soul
to the darkest recess
is where i wish to go
you are the sweetest flower
that i have devoured
i ask for nothing given
for nothing in return
blue skies bring tears
Machina 2 Lyrics
long run the silent horses
soft cry the shellshock houses
wring dry the salty tears
of sailors and their lovers
bring forth the silent movies
kiss all the twilight crime
bleach blonde the high wire groupies
sucking up their time
lungs crack the vapors anxious
drain out the fleeting sources
sits through the sunday speeches
delivered out in thin air
rain rusts the creaking masses
wind blows the temples down
blood fills the exit tunnels
streaking out of town
it's about time
it's about drawing near
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
unleash the armageddon
draw down the hungry prayer
kneeling for the final verdict
judges draw you near
let fly your model armies
let fly the locust cry
uncork the hidden forces
amassing to a lie
it's about time
it's about you here
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
i need time
to find your soul
to find your lie
blue skies bring tears
until i go blind
shake loose the huddled masses
spit on the urgent armies
cracked tooth the fading roses
frozen since your burn
fire all your dead tree soldiers
shoot down these skeletal bells
i don't know means to crisis
that doesn't go through hell
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
