somewhere in the midnight
where the dark is running cold
somewhere in the lonelyness a cry
somewhere in the midnight
where the earth was burned by nukes
a child is born sick and deformed a cry
before her eyes a child is born
before her eyes sick'n deformed
she memorized the lightning
the smoke, the wind, the rain
she memorized the stormy day the heat
no one warned the danger
all the years before
no one warned the deadly mess
they'd cheated
children, children, children of a lesser God
no one believes what they can see
just flesh but it lives
children, children, children of a lesser God
no one believes what they can see
