Olde Growth - The Grand Illusion

On these bloody battlegrounds / we sail a sinking ship
I've seen the future / and it don't look so grim
Time is an endless library of scenes
But we're stuck facing forward / on a bloody, one way track

Iron eagles fly in reverse in the glowing sky!
Bellies open wide and drawing up metallic pills
That sucked the fires from the ground and raised the rubble up
And all the life that was extinguished flourishes once more

Comets of fire / burst outside the rail car
Small points of light punctuate / the darkness!
As I lie here dying / will you heed my final words?
Throw away your stone / and Kill, No More!

Iron eagles fly in reverse in the glowing sky!
Bodies ravaged as the sparrows fall in at their side
To rip the bullets from their flesh and heal their battle wounds
And take the bombs to be dismantled so they can harm no more!
