Out Of The Silent Planet

Out of the silent planet, out of the silent planet we are, ...

Withered hands, withered bodies begging for salvation
Deserted by the hand of gods of their own creation
Nations cry underneath decaying skies above
You are guilty, the punishment is death for all who live
The punishment is guilt for all who live


Out of the silent planet, dreams of desolation
Out of the silent planet, come the demons of creation

The killing fields, the grinding wheels crushed by equilibrium
Separate lives, no more disguise, no more second chances
Haggard wisdom spitting out the bitter taste of hate
I accuse you before you know the crime it's all too late
Before you know the crime it's all too late

Out of the silent planet, out of the silent planet we are,
