Blue Dove Video (MV)

In the ashes of New York
You had to go to work

Cause the market didn't die
You were still supposed to fly

Blue dove, blue dove
Pecking breadcrumbs of
Some hero's shell-shocked love
The mayor said
Never forget
To go to the store
And buy
Blue dove, blue dove
Now they really
Don't want you to ask
"Why?"

Strangers in dust cross the Williamsburg Bridge
You were one of those many simply hoping to live

With your crossword, bagel and latte the world felt survivable
Then it imploded and only the killers knew what they were dying for

Blue dove, blue dove
Sent your husband away
For his veins don't pump
American blood
He got intellectual
On the morning
Of
The 12th
Blue dove, blue dove
Flew with him in formation
Before you were
Someone else

A ghost in living skin
Unforgiven for an undefined sin

Emotionless post-apocalypse
Numb to his desperate kiss

Blue dove, Blue Dove
Snagged on the barbwire
Separating
Them and us
Outside the fortress
Built
In the
Victim's names
Blue dove, blue dove
Caught on camera
Singing on the metal detector
Guarding our game
