Wintergardens - Killing Joke

Bleak are the hearts in summer, long wintertime

We are god-children running, immortal child

Out on the chill horizon, shine morning stars

Configurations I’ll remember herald one season always

Run, run, run, how we run

We cry like children

In wintergardens now

Run, run, run, how we run

And play like children

In wintergardens now

Cry for the pride in our wars, the tragedy

Lost in this blinding frenzy, all knowledge fades

Crimes of humanity or courageous deeds?

No longer see injustice in self destruction always

Visions of pain transforming, new heavens come

Eternal are the grey skies, gardens invert

Nightshades of Eden touch me, forever touch

No god has answered prayers here (except ourselves)

Run, run, run, how we run

We cry like children

In wintergardens now

Run, run, run, how we run

And play like children

In wintergardens now

Run, run, run, how we run

We cry like children

In wintergardens now

Run, run, run, how we run

We play like children

In wintergardens now
