"Tears Run Rings"

On heavenly rain you fell into my life
Unforgettable smile, unforgettable lies
In the name of the cross or a banner of love
With the hand of a friend or under a blanket of trust

The angels sighed
A little girl cried
The tears run rings around my eyes

We're gonna set fire to the house in my heart
We're gonna set fire to the whole damn world
I don't understand the wicked things we do
In the name of the good, in the name of the few

The angels sighed
A little girl cried
The tears run rings around my eyes 

The angels sighed
A little girl cried
The tears run rings around my eyes

Don't look up at me with your innocent smile
When the bed is burning around my head
When a war breaks out, it'll be no surprise
Your unforgettable smile, your unforgettable lies

And I've got to stop running
To make my start
We've got to get together
Before we fall apart

They're pulling down the old slums
to build the new
They're bringing back the old rules
to please the few



In the name of the cross or a banner of love
With the hand of a friend or under a blanket of trust

The angels sighed
A little girl cried
The tears run rings around my eyes

The angels sighed
A little girl cried
The tears run rings around my eyes

The angels sighed
A little girl cried
The tears run rings around my eyes

The angels sighed
A little girl cried
The tears run rings around my eyes

Pull down the old slums to build the new
Pull down the love I built with you
Promise of tomorrow, you never kept
And you try to burn the house down
when I slept
The nation's in disorder
There's chaos in my heart
We've got to get together
Before we fall apart

Before we fall apart
Before we fall apart
Before we fall apart
Before we fall apart
