Raining Fire in the Night

Dark skies above (above) The sands aflame, where rockets blow Can you hear them fall, their echoes grow Jurisdiction's lost, the damage shown Amber alerts the sky In barren lands, the sirens wry Taste the iron in the dust (in the dust) Scattered stones, in war we trust Their shadows cast, by fire's glee And her voice cries, amidst the debris 'Do you see this blight, through the smoky veil' 'Innocence impaled, as humanity fails' [chorus] Raining fire, coloring the ground in red Raining fire, bringing death and devastation Raining fire, raining fire, the roaring war deafens Ashes to ash (to ash) Winds whisper tales of cities past Silhouettes against the blast, once they soared, now they crash Sirens blend with a desert choir As the sky wears a burning wire His voice deep, in the night (in the night) [chorus] Steel birds' cries (birds' cries) Shatter the peace, break through the air Silent prayers dissolve in despair Her sacred ground, torn by the strife The pulse of war, a wicked life He watches the storm, in the night (in the night) Blackened earth under foot (under foot) Veiled in smoke, with sorrow sooth Will tomorrow hold, echoes we've sewn In fragile whispers, through the wreckage roam His steel heart beats, beneath the sky (the sky) While she weeps for life, that's whispered goodbye [outro] A final whisper as war machine roars Raining fire, the land is now barren Raining fire, there is no tomorrow Raining fire in the night (in the night)
