no avalon

I´m just a white girl
From a small, safe town
What could I possibly know about destruction?

My lawn sure looks green today
Underneath these suburban skies

But the little boy next door
Wants to be the Lord of the Flies

It´s like Cain and Able and the holy sacrifice
And I have to believe that God has closed his eyes
And if there is no Avalon and we only have one life
It´s hard to conceive why we let our brothers die

My bed is so safe here
And my rose-colored glasses, they´re broken
And how the truth leaks in
And I, I can´t imagine
I saw it on the news tonight

That they´d announce his name
I saw the blood on his hands
And they told me to look away

I tell ya it´s like Cain and Able and the holy sacrifice
And I have to believe that God has closed his eyes
And if there is no Avalon and we only have one life
It´s hard to conceive why we let our sisters die

Why, why?
Why?
It´s a confusing civilization, darling

I tell ya It´s like Cain and Able and the holy sacrifice

And I have to believe that God has closed his eyes
And if there is no Avalon and we only have one life
It´s hard to conceive why we let our people die
We let ´em die
And watch them die
