Beneath the Angry Sky - Strawbs

Warplanes fly in terror

Waves orders are withdrawn

Horses rear with nostrils

Flared a child is still born

All afternoon as hell pours down

Families stand like rock

Holding hands in fear and rage

Reeling with the shock

Who will answer to themselves

The simple question why

We must search within ourselves

Beneath the angry sky

Nothing moves the town lies

Still behind ruined face

A single oak defiant in

The silent marketplace

A school of shattered lives

Inside the broken window panes

The hope of all those burned

Inside is all that still remains

Who will answer to themselves

The simple question why

We must search within ourselves

Beneath the angry sky

A light of hope still burns

Behind a single shuttered door

Despite its broken heart

The town is stronger than before

Who will answer to themselves

The simple question why

We must search within ourselves

Beneath the angry sky

Who will answer to themselves

The simple question why

We must search within ourselves

Beneath the angry sky
