lyrics

Silent Star
December 8, 2004

1. Strange angels in the sky
interrupt this lonely night
singing peace on earth.
But what’s that worth
when they sing it from the sky?

2. No angel will never know
what it’s like living below.
They sing of birth,
but that just means more hurt
as another woman cries.

Born under a silent star.
Live under a silent star.
Die under a silent star,
a million miles away.

3. 2,000 years passed since that night
and the only light that fills the sky
are the rockets red glare
and bombs bursting in air
under the gaze of satellite,
above this maze with restless eye.

Born under a silent star.
Live under a silent star.
Die under a silent star,
a million miles away.

A silent star, while all the angels sing:
Gloria, Gloria, in excelsis Deo.
