Reflections
©1973 Andrew Calhoun, recorded on Where Blue Meets Blue.
You show nothing in your eyes
I'm sure you even think in lies
Your brain is set in wax
You're bloody from your axe
And you stabbed us in the backs
Acid melts the sunshine
There's hatred on the moon
The shielded eyes and twisted minds
The games they play come true
Children sleeping on the dawn
Their nightlights muffled by the sun
Are not disturbed by sounds of guns
Their parents on the run
Admit they are not strong
And wonder what is wrong
Acid melts the sunshine
There's hatred on the moon
The shielded eyes and twisted minds
The games they play come true
Those who walk on city streets
And those who sit in schoolroom seats
Never see the thing that creeps
It's lapping at our feet
And over the whispering lake |
Six million voices shriek
Acid melts the sunshine
There's hatred on the moon
The shielded eyes and twisted minds
The games they play come true
