From Above

Staring at the rain Through dirty window panes The war began And everything was strange Except for you And something that you said It's always peaceful from above It's always peaceful from above Clouds like hills of snow Are drifting in the light That swallows us And everything goes white You'd never know The wilderness below It's always peaceful from above It's always peaceful from above Armies on the ground Like pins into a map Pack their bags And march a muddy path And soon they know They won't be coming back It's always peaceful from above It's always peaceful from above
