Day of infamy. Heaven fell where the rivers meet A new in history, The sky will burn at forty five degrees Out of the morning sun came the new Armageddon The Earth stood still as one and the angels in Heaven cried Tears of blood. They cried tears of blood For the innocent three thousand the angels cried tears of blood Shock and disbelief. The world gazed at TV screens All states united in grief. Diplomacy was ll too brief Out of the western skies came a fierce retribution A blood for blood reprise as again the angels cried Tears of blood. They cried tears of blood For the unavenged three thousand the angels cried tears of blood Tears of black blood. They cried tears of black blood As a nation's rage defined the new age with tears of black blood Retribution From the aftermath emerged tales of incredible rescue Many heroes lost their lives, yet the surfing man survived Out of the settling dust rose a defiant nation Bonded by their loss and a thirst for reparation Tears of blood. They cried tears of blood For the unavenged three thousand the angels cried tears of blood Tears of black blood. They cried tears of black blood On that terrible day a price was paid in tears of black blood Tears of black blood
