Misfortune has appeared tonight
And you ask why
Casualty at your feet as you grieve
Face to the ground as a crowd surrounds
The water pours down
Blood on the pavement
And an ambulance arrives
Rain falls upon the innocent
As sirens fade away
Come the waves of uniforms
Like a perfect storm
You will speak of apologies
For what you can't ignore
Blood on the pavement
And an ambulance arrives
Rain falls upon the innocent
As sirens fade away
A calamity
Has come to pass again
A calamity
Has come to pass again
