Queensrÿche Lyrics

11. Bullet the Blue Sky

Originally by U2

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain 
See it driving nails into souls on the tree of pain 
from the firefly, a red orange glow 
See the face of fear running scared in the valley below 

Bullet the blue sky 
Bullet the blue sky 
Bullet the blue 
Bullet the blue 

In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum 
Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel was overcome 
Plant a demon seed, you raise a flower of fire 
See them burning crosses, see the flames, higher and higher 

Bullet the blue sky 
Bullet the blue sky 
Bullet the blue 
Bullet the blue 

This guy comes up to me 
His face red like a rose on a thorn bush 
Like all the colors of a royal flush 
And hes peeling off those dollar bills 
Slapping them down 
One hundred, two hundred 
And I can see those fighter planes 
And I can see those fighter planes 
Across the mud huts where the children sleep 
Through the alleys of a quiet city street 
Take the staircase to the first floor 
Turn the key and slowly unlock the door 
As a man breathes into a saxophone 
Through the walls we hear the city groan 
Outside its America 
Outside its America 

Across the field you see the sky ripped open 
See the rain come through the gaping wound 
Pounding on the women and children 
Who run into the arms of America
