When the angel of death gives birth to a child
the sky will be grey, the moon will be bright
days and weeks trying to save your children
taking control, protecting the wounded.
These are the final pages in this book
the things that you borrow, the treasures you just took
repent on your knees and you might escape from famine
deal or no deal, burning the liars.

Held her dead body up to my face
never thought I'd ever do this.
I will sing a thousand lullabies
as you sleep with flowers in your arms.
Everything was painted blue and green
when the blind man played his tambourine.
It rained and rained
the voices, my name.
Running nose, frozen veins
don't remember me as I am today.
Pretty baby, lost and gone
after this day I'll come undone.
Paint my lips rosey red
as I lay on my bed.
It rained and rained
the voices, my name.
Ada, come back
Ada, please come back.

She took a deep breath
before jumping off the bridge
I never knew, I never knew you could fly and sink.
He held out his hand
before crossing the street
he never thought, he thought they'd stare.
It is what it is
every time I wake
and when I go to sleep
I could run away
but I stay and speak
this is what I say
ohhhhh.
They couldn't hold her back.
why do you cry like this?
I never knew, I never knew you yearned the silver screen.
We never walked away
surviving all there is
you never knew, they never thought we'd last.
It is what it is
every time I wake
and when I go to sleep
I could run away
but I stay and speak
this is what I say
ohhhhh.

The newborn child wants to get a present
that charming man wants to hold your hand.
He doesn't know the right way to say it
but I'm sure you'll understand.
They'll find us where the Sun won't shine.
Sleeping well I cannot find
another reason to complain,
a new beginning with no end.
Sit next to me and we'll talk about it,
I'll start to cook if we later wash.
Yes I'm sure sometimes I can't stand it,
but I know you'll understand.
They'll find us where the Sun won't shine.
Sleeping well I cannot find
another reason to complain,
a new beginning with no end.

I thought you were untamable a wild creature with no name.
Never saw you as an answer, but you were a pretty game.
In and out of the covers never sure of times or dates.
It was never a resistance nor an avant garde parade.
All I need is an answer,
guess I could use some rain.
All I want is the certainty that I will never see you again.
Kiddy Plane.
And the sheets were torn and burned down when I killed the tortured pets.
I was all covered in cinder and I didn't know my name.
His green eyes bruised and bloodshot with a smirk on his face.
Run away from the explosion I would never be the same.
All I need is an answer,
guess I could use some rain.
All I want is the certainty that I will never see you again
Several sunsets passed before me
and the sky was burning red.
All the sparkles twist and tumble I will never speak your name.
Kiddy Plane.
