Gabriel's Sword
In the middle of the schoolyard Where the bombs have lain to rest There's a child in the darkness waiting But the answers in the history books Are slowly burning down And the words that spell forgiveness Wear a thorny crown There is much that I have seen In this world they say is free That would make it almost seem untrue Many times I've walked the line Longing for the other side The only thing that changed my mind was you Gabriel's sword will pierce me no more I'll let my spirit soar so high Sure as it all comes From the father to the son We've got to learn to speak the truth to fly And it's a beautiful sky Aus Songtexte Mania
