lyrics

"Crack in the Wall" (J. Haggerty)

Black moon rising through
A Hole in the wall
Blood red tears are
Starting to fall
In the dead of the night
A hot wind blows

A dark road leads away
From the sun
The papers tell the story
Of the deeds that are done
And the people believe
But they don’t really know

There are knives at their back
Knives at their back

Dreams are broken by
Promises shared
The man with the plan is
Sure running scared
There is nothing contained
Nowhere to go

With a knife at your back
Knife at your back
There’s nowhere to go
With a knife at your back

A pat on the back with
A handful of lies
Industrial chatter to
Cover the cries
And your eyes grow dim
Blinded by lies

A Hot wind blows through
A crack in the wall
The dreams of the schemers
Are starting crawl
In the dead of the night
And there’s nowhere to go

With a knife in your back
Knife in your back
There’s a crack in the wall
Crack in the wall
There’s a knife in your back
Through the crack in the wall
