A City in the Skies Lyrics by Ulver

The Red Light

2024

[Verse 1]
A black widow hangs, hangs from a tree
Marked with the cross, a symbol of concern
Under the cover of night, a powerful play
Rolling into the city, wild beasts of prey
In a garden of green, cascading streams
A thousand little screens, the killing machines
[Chorus]
What are they thinking of? What is going on? What in the world is happening now?
What are they thinking of? What is going on? All the little children have gone insane
[Verse 2]
Break the window, get into the house
Wipe the memory, we were never here
Icons will fall once and for all
A heart-shaped piece of wood, St. Catherine by the well
The birds are in the air, the streets have new names
The war doors are open, a storm is coming
[Chorus]
What are they thinking of? What is going on? What in the world is happening now?
What are they thinking of? What is going on? All the little children have gone insane
