The sky parades it's pallid gown and cape austere
hangs overcast with ashen shades and cloudscapes drear
And twilit lies the earth below, its eyes fixed on the celestial show
Oh yeah, oh yeah, the hollow sky
And when the spheres were carved to hang concentrically,
encompassing the realms within symmetry
The architect had th' innermost by frailer outward steams enclosed:
Oh yeah, oh yeah, the hollow sky
Hollow sky, welkin wide, hallowed high, hollow sky
I've heard the tales of sanctity, the lies of boundless love
As Wormwood sinks into the sea, dire woe comes from above
It dissipates upon the earth, instilled into each brittle birth
Oh yeah, oh yeah, the bitter truth
O wondrous change: the clouds dissolve - the skies flare red
The cloudbreak washes this world clean: rich blood is shed
The second deluge most benign, redeeming flood of Grace Divine
Oh yeah, the flood of Grace Divine
Oh yeah, oh yeah, the great divide
Welkin wide, hallowed high, hollow sky
