Babylon Was Built On Fire / Starsnostars

I had a dream
A terrible dream
Bombs were falling
And you were far away from me

And the woods where we sought shelter
Were already burning
Sparks lifted by the wind
Hoping and twirling

And in the hollow sky
One thousand pidgeons cried
And I could not reach you
And the whole world died

But oh the beauty
Of those slender aching trees
And the birds so sweetly weeping
Behind those perfect leaves

And the flames upon the water
So gently trembeling
And this nightmare like a lovesong
That was between you and me...

Babylon was built on fire
And the bones of useless machines
It hurt to breathe
You fell away from me

Packs of helicopters divide
Across a crowded sky
What angels did you ride
As I staggered at your side

Babylon was built on fire
And the bones of useless machines
It hurt to breathe
You fell away from me

[First voice]
Citizens in their homes
And missiles in their holes...

[Second voice]
The brightest night
I ever saw,
Across
An empty parking lot
No stars

[Third voice]
This highway needs rain across
Both of it's lanes until
All that remains is
This heart and it's flames
And the rumble of trains
'Neath a handful of stars

No stars...
No stars...
No stars...
