No Avalon

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I'm just a white girlFrom a small, safe townWhat could I possibly know about destruction?My lawn sure looks green todayUnderneath these suburban skiesBut the little boy next doorWants to be the Lord of the FliesIt's like Cain and AbleAnd the Holy SacrificeAnd I have to believe that GodHas closed his eyesAnd if there is no AvalonAnd we only have one lifeIt's hard to conceive why we let our brothers dieMy bed is so safe hereAnd my rose-coloured glasses, they're brokenAnd how the truth leaks inAnd I, I can't imagineI saw it on the news tonightThat they'd announce his nameI saw the blood on his handsAnd they told me to look awayI tell yaiit's like Cain and AbleAnd the Holy SacrificeAnd I have to believe that GodHas closed his eyesAnd if there is no AvalonAnd we only have one lifeIt's hard to conceive why we let our sisters dieIt's like...Why, why?Why?It's a confusing civilization, darlingIt's like Cain and AbleAnd the Holy SacrificeAnd I have to believe that GodHas closed his eyesAnd there is no AvalonAnd we only have one lifeIt's hard to conceive why we let our people dieWe let 'em dieAnd watch them die
