Where Angels Fear to Tread

War birds fly in tight formation, across the blackened sky

A thousand engines roar, tremors of the approaching storm

One man's insanity, revenge and retribution

Steel birds fat and laden with death, their bellies open wide

Commence to unleash a fiery death, upon the defenseless target

A thousand souls screaming in pain as incendiary bombs detonate

The smell, phosphor and petrol mix with the stench of burning flesh

Firestorms rage across the city, even the air seems to be aflame

The howl of air-raid sirens drowns the screams of pain

Non-combatants pay a bloody toll, whole city blocks disappear

Damnation and a raging inferno, destruction is complete.
