Tears of a God
Tears rain down
falling down
all on the little children
their heads lift high
watching fiery sky
all stare up so far away
heaven is not here
on this dirty sphere
but in the hearts of men
when the tears fall down
burning the ground
washing souls of sin
when children die
i hope their hearts fly
and reach that place i'll never see
the tears of god
flood this sod
that spans from fires to sea
i bleed here now
and wonder how
a god would weep so much
then i think
of lover's on the fatal brink
and remember heaven's touch
tears will dry
and angels sigh
and children will pass away
and here i stand
just a man
and here i will e'er stay
