What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I'm just a white girl
2
From a small, safe town
3
What could I possibly know about destruction?
4
My lawn sure looks green today
5
Underneath these suburban skies
6
But the little boy next door
7
Wants to be the Lord of the Flies
8
It's like Cain and Abel and the holy sacrifice
9
And I have to believe that God has closed his eyes
10
And if there is no Avalon and we only have one life
11
It's hard to conceive why we let our brothers die
12
My bed is so safe here
13
And my rose-colored glasses, they're broken
14
And how the truth leaks in
15
And I, I can't imagine
16
I saw it on the news tonight
17
That they'd announce his name
18
I saw the blood on his hands
19
And they told me to look away
20
I tell ya it's like Cain and Abel and the holy sacrifice
21
And I have to believe that God has closed his eyes
22
And if there is no Avalon and we only have one life
23
It's hard to conceive why we let our sisters die
24
Why, why?
25
Why?
26
It's a confusing civilization, darling
27
I tell ya It's like Cain and Abel and the holy sacrifice
28
And I have to believe that God has closed his eyes
29
And if there is no Avalon and we only have one life
30
It's hard to conceive why we let our people die
31
We let 'em die
32
And watch them die.
