Hole in the sky

Hole in the sky hole in the skyscrapers
'Tis so painful to remember
Though years may pass
You can't even seem to learn

Can't stop loving you my home
Can't believe in you anymore
Can't stop thinking of you my brothers
This is my home no more

Hole in the sky hole in the skyscrapers
A thousand holes in the fields of East
For each dead man we'll kill a thousand
Just to show all we're the best

Can't stop loving you my home
You never seem to learn
I'm gonna come home no more

With fools an' idiots on both parts
Who believe to be the best
An' death on each side of the street
An' death in the towns of East
An' death in the name of God
That green square God in whom you trust

This is my home no more
These are my streets no more
Hole in the sky hole in the skyscrapers
A million lights can shine
T'night there's sorrow in my heart
