THE SKY IS FALLING
(Alenskis, Barlow, Hash, Lillis © 2020)

Gravity’s rainbow - which way‘s the wind blowin’
What goes up must come down
A classic game of chess - hedging all the bets
But what comes around goes around
The blood you squeeze from a stone
Just may be your own
Drop a pebble in a pond let the ripples carry on
Played out on the daily news
The sky is falling - bombs in the weather
Blood in the streets - business never better
The sky is falling - tears in the rain
Blood on the hands - in an endless game

Old dog new tricks never giving up the ship
Sticking to the status quo
Old school cool fool nothing even left to rule
Just another domino
Selective memory - just who is the enemy?
Blowback is a fact no one talks about, jack
Actin’ like it’s all brand new
The sky is falling - bombs in the weather
Blood in the streets - business never better
The sky is falling - tears in the rain
Blood on the hands - it's a crying shame

Radio voice: Command, this is Bushwhacker One
We are monitoring potential hostiles on the ground
Response: Roger Bushwhacker One, we copy that
Radio voice: This is Bushwhacker One
We are monitoring suspicious activity
Requesting permission to engage
Response: Bushwhacker One you are clear to engage
Radio voice: Copy that
Targets are locked
Ordinance is away
Radio voice: Good Kill

The name of the game is fanning the flames
For power, money, god or glory
All the other layers and the unseen players
More than two sides to the story
What a tangled web is weaved - by those who practice to deceive
Looking for a missing link - spoon fed what to think
Truth is never that it seems
The sky is falling - bombs in the weather
Blood in the streets - business never better
The sky is falling - tears in the rain
Blood on the hands - in an endless game
The sky is falling, the sky is falling
The sky is falling, the sky is falling
Falling, falling, falling, falling....
