Blackfire Choked Our Death
oleh: Beck


Lightning burned the fieldsBlack fire choked our breathWe huddled in the kitchenSand poured through the wallsWe looked to one anotherThe children shut their mouthsThe whirling and the turningOf destruction filled our houseThe blood-thirsty yearningClamored all about usDarkness rose upFrom the floor like a demonFearful of the deathThat buckled through our mindsShaken to the coreForesaken and unkindWell, the sun came a-shininAnd the dust did settle downBirds and jack-rabbitsLay dead on the groundElectricityTrembled in the skysSparks shot forwardCausing us to flyTake some breakfastBut the grit was in our foodAnd everywhere around usStarvation broke on throughMy husband stood a-starinAt the plentiful disasterGod was in his eyesBut death was in his heartDried up whiskeyChickens in the houseStolen car stereoCholesterol on your mouthStolen car stereoSnowman all in flamesDeluxe cockroachTelling me what's realBlack Sabbath playingI wake up in my socksCandle all a-burnin
