Fires From The Sky

1980 brach im Staate Washington der Mount St. Helens aus. Heute kann man vom Johnston Ridge Observatory einen Blick auf den Krater werfen. In der Rangerstation wird ein Film über den Ausbruch gezeigt. Die Eindrücke vom Besuch 2013 verbunden mit dem schwermütigen Riff führten zu folgenden Textzeilen:

1. Hear the rumbling sound – From the noise of tumbling ground.
Look into the break – Feel the earth begins to shake.
Watch the mountain die – Sending fires from the sky.
R. Fires from the sky – where the landscape die - Fires from the sky.
2. See the melting rocks – As the cone throws cinder blocks.
Hide yourself away – Heat is rising where you stay.
Climb down from the high – Burning fires from the sky.
R. Fires from the sky – melting rocks that fly - Fires from the sky.
2. See the melting rocks – As the cone throws cinder blocks.
Hide yourself away – Heat is rising where you stay.
Climb down from the high – Burning fires from the sky.
3. Spot the steaming mud – Rises to gigantic flood.
Leave the deadly zone – From the devastating cone.
Ask the reason why – Blazing fires crack the sky
R. Fires from the sky – volcanic blast that cry – Fires from the sky.
