In the middle of the schoolyard
Where the bombs have lain to rest
There's a child in the darkness waiting
But the answers in the history books
Are slowly burning down
And the words that spell forgiveness, wear a thorny crown
Gabriel's sword will pierce me no more
I'll let my spirit soar so high
Sure as it all comes from the father to the son
We've got to learn to see the truth to fly
It's a beautiful sky
There is much that I have seen
In this world they say is free
That would make it almost seem untrue
Many times I've walked the line
Longing for the other side
Only thing that changed my mind was you
Gabriel's sword will pierce me no more
I'll let my spirit soar so high
Sure as it all comes from the father to the son
We've got to learn to see the truth to fly
It's a beautiful sky
It's a beautiful sky
Gabriel's sword will pierce me no more
I'll let my spirit soar so high
Sure as it all comes from the father to the son
We've got to learn to see the truth to fly
It's a beautiful sky
It's a beautiful sky
OUTRO: (## fade to end ##)
It's a beautiful
sky
