Gaslit Skies
Do believe the truth we tell you
Don't believe your lying eyes
Say the mocking birds now calling
Filling these dark gaslit skies
While the children all around us
Reaching up with open arms
Wonder if we’ll protect them or
Leave them to a world that harms
As this force of darkest evil
Winks within us as we sleep
Leading our minds into chaos
Dawn will free us from the deep
