The cities are deserted
The structures stand alone
Justice is perverted
And silence speaks like stone
The ground is trembling
The missiles fall like rain
A force is assembling
And silence speaks of pain
This is the mercy of our enemies
Here is the wisdom of your God
This is the extent of our blasphemy
And blood seeps into ground we trod
The streets are empty
Survivors sleep underground
And no-one cries mercy
The silence speaks without sound
The sky is black
The smoke obscures the sun
Refugees don't look back
And silences speak as one
