From the recording Black Sunday
Lyrics
Black Sunday
You only came round long enough
To try and wake the dead
The fireflies were all inside
Tucked safely in their beds
You made the sign of the cross
Across your chest before you left
The rest of us oblivious
That you had came and went
I myself was lost and found
And trying to get some sleep
When I was woken with a start
To find you at my feet
All I heard was screaming
In my head and in the street
I walked alone by candlelight
To see what I could see
I woke up the next morning
And the secrets were revealed
Some were broke and trampled
Some left shivering in the fields
All were staring at the sky
To see what it would say
No one will ever forget
This blackest of Sundays
Instrum
I’m sure that you’d be pleased to know
The damage you had done
We tried our best to keep the streets
All safe for everyone
We only let our guard down
Long enough to take a breath
And in you came like fire and rain
Thinking only of yourself
And in you came like fire and rain
Thinking only of yourself
And in you came like fire and rain
Thinking only of yourself
