Silent Cries - Cans

How can I take on this mission?

That I’ve been told to do

My hands are tied, I am crucified

I’m a stranger in a strange land

So now I’m feeling the pressure

It’s boiling up inside

Where hatred only grows stronger

Comes a man, a beast, a killing machine

And visions that are haunting me

Through my blind eyes I still can see

The mission has to be done

Silent cries, the spirit dies

By the hands of the innocent

Before blue skies will fade to black

On a darkened horizon

The clouds are closing in

When skies are fading to black again

Hold your breath, I’m ready to attack

So now I’m caught in the action

There’s nothing left to do

I fear the end coming nearer

Pull the trigger, now the curtain’s closed

And all is coming back to me

Through open eyes I cannot see

The mission had to be done

Silent cries, the spirit dies

By the hands of the innocent

Before blue skies will fade to black

Silent cries, the spirit dies

Wash my hands of the innocent

I close my eyes and say goodbye
