Death From Above, Version 2

Verse 1)
A bird falls from the sky,
A broken arrow shot from high.
It lands in the mud,
Its lifeblood pooling red.
 
(Chorus)
Death from above,
Life from below,
Memories fade far away.
 
(Verse 2)
A flower sprouts from the soil,
Defying the war and the toil.
It reaches for the light,
Its fragrance filling the night.
 
(Chorus)
Death from above,
Life from below,
Memories fade far away.
 
(Bridge)
A memory lingers in the mind,
Like a song that has been left behind.
It fades with time like a sigh,
Like a star in the dawn sky.
 
(Chorus)
Death from above,
Life from below,
Memories fade far away.
 
(Outro)
Life and death,
Love and loss,
Joy and sorrow.
These are the things that shape us.
These are the things that we remember.
