lyrics

I heard the sound of a gun
but I turned around and there was no one
and I smelled somebody burnin'
we're all at war but the world keeps on turnin'

let me sing you to sleep while I can
'cause I may wake up in the morning
with your blood on my hands

I saw the steel mountains crumble
I felt the shake and I felt the rumble
and I saw the mothers cryin'
while the birds overhead were dyin'

let me sing you to sleep while I can
'cause I may wake up in the morning
with your blood on my hands

I wrote this song for the trees
for the clouds and the flowers and the bees
and I pray for the strength of words
but most of all I say a prayer for the birds
