[verse 1]
Have you heard of the news today,
The sky burned and withered away,

And beneath a shameful gray,
A corpse whispers may,


Have you heard the news today,
The beautiful stars lay,
Six feet neath the suns rays,

And a corpse whispers may,



[chorus]
So piece together my eyes,
And stitch together my arms,

Break thy mothers lips,



[verse 2]
With cottonmouth and starry eyes,
We dream of screamin' skies,

And a million flies pray,
That she finds her way,
Beneath a sedated daylight sun,

Burnin' on,

And the vultures gather round,

Swarmin' on this scorched ground,
Ants kill over this blackened mound,
A whisper for a pound of flesh,

Of flesh,

[chorus]

So piece together the eyes,
And stitch together my arms,
Break thy mothers lips,


[outro]
Have you heard the news today,

The sky withered away
