The City of Broken Toys

from The Beehive of Selfish Selves by The Tomorrow File

about

Baghdad.

lyrics

Every tick follows every tock
Every sparrow, every falling rock
Every shepherd, every hungry flock
Every anger, every broken lock

Every inch before every mile
Every grace before every smile
Every sacrifice, every hungry child
Every seed, every field grown wild

A savaged dream become blind rage
The dreams of freedom broken in a cage
A song of summer overplayed
A one-act play on a burning stage

Blow on, like sand,
But theres no hiding place,
All alone
Completely on your own
Stay with me darling,
I'm coming home
