The Smashing Pumpkins
Blue Skies Bring Tears (version 1)
Long run my silent horses
Soft cry the shell shocked houses
Wring dry the salty tears
Of sailors and their lover

Bring forth the silent movies
Kiss all the twilight crimes
Bleach blonde the high wire groupies
Sucking up their time

Rain rust the creaking masses
Wind blows the temples down
Blood fills the exit tunnels
Streaking out of town

It's about time
It's about fear
Blue skies bring tears

Lungs clack the vapors anxious
Tears drain the fleeing sources
Sit through their sunday speeches
Delivered in thin air

Unleash the armageddon
Draw down the hungry prayer
Kneel for the final verdict
Judges draw you near
Let fly model armies
Let fly the locust cry
Uncork the hidden forces
Amassing to a lie

It's about time
It's about being here
Blue skies bring tears
Don't you want me
I'll be there for you again
Emilia

You're the angel becoming
You are the angel ascending
Cruel the dogs of winter
Barking in your ear

Shake loose the huddled masses
Spit on the urgent armies
Cracked tooth, the fading roses
Frozen since your burn

Fire all the dead tree soldiers
Shoot down the skeletal bells
I know means to crisis
That doesn't go through hell
It's about time
It's about you
Blue skies bring tears
