Lyrics
VERSE 1 It’s noon but it’s as dark as night And through the clearing smoke The first thing I see is a neon light Advertising Coke. VERSE 2 There are desert flowers that you have grown Broken under the rubble. This far-off land is little known This is a local trouble. CHORUS There’s a dark star rising, Growing in a corner of the sky. There’s a cold star, rising. But it will burn the naked eye. VERSE 3 Overhead, the noonday sun Is staring down in judgement. Blood and oil mix in the sand By order of the profit. VERSE 4 Hatred poisons rivers, The streets are stained with tears. Bombs tear modern city blocks And children hide in fear CHORUS BRIDGE Overhead the birds are wheeling Lightly turning in the sky Knowing that the times will change That every man is born to die. Desert roses waiting quietly Growing slowly in the shade. Nature knows that man will some day Melt away and slowly fade. GUITAR SOLO CHORUS
