Sun In The Cold War

The Guns ’n Roses
Bloodshed and limelight
I see you as you come through
Different cultures and dark alleys
As your face burns and cools
Climate change to the centuries back.
But who am I to say
My pleadings, my thank you-s
The world beneath us lay
Agony and Love
Changing masks as we walk down and down
My Hell and Heaven in the same gaze.
The more of it the darker, anyways
And then I search for you
In the stations and shades of Red
Gray or Black
Illegal and banned, not to forget
Not a degree but a pursuing.
And we walk down in straight lines
Red, yellow, green and the sunlight
As you watch my hair flow
Through the silent World War
Diminishing through and through
Slowly in the heat of power and glory.
Not the National Anthem but the money
And so I tell you to run
Or I devour all your fame
And then we lay down beneath the perplexed earth
Burning in fire, turning to ashes
Waiting for the Ice Age to encrust us.
