Blue Skies Bring Tears Lyrics
unleash the armageddon
so all the children go to heaven
i sit by quiet still
with their pictures on my eyes
you'll draw the guns your given
write down the words as written
and never disturb the presense
of resurrection crutch
and it's about time
it's about drawing near
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
descend the darkened stairway
make hate with plastic playmates
and fire out remaining traces
of your self esteem
mainline the deepest secrets
lick clean the dirty fingers
i am a stranger to you
as you are to yourself
and it's about time
it's about fear
blue skies bring tears
don't you want me
cause i await city sigh
we'll watch the seasons die
blue skies bring tears
take me inside your body
cover me with your soul
to the darkest recess
is where i wish to go
you are the sweetest flower
that i have ever devoured
i ask for nothing given
for nothing in return
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
so all the children go to heaven
i sit by quiet still
with their pictures on my eyes
you'll draw the guns your given
write down the words as written
and never disturb the presense
of resurrection crutch
it's about drawing near
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
make hate with plastic playmates
and fire out remaining traces
of your self esteem
mainline the deepest secrets
lick clean the dirty fingers
i am a stranger to you
as you are to yourself
it's about fear
blue skies bring tears
don't you want me
cause i await city sigh
we'll watch the seasons die
take me inside your body
cover me with your soul
to the darkest recess
is where i wish to go
you are the sweetest flower
that i have ever devoured
i ask for nothing given
for nothing in return
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears
blue skies bring tears

I think the main idea of this song's pretty easy to figure out... Blue skies bring tears = clarity brings sadness. When you figure out what's happening, you feel terrible.
i see now. as the clouds clear out and become clear blue skies, it shows everything that they were hiding

I think this song is about a bombing on a city. The last verse is someone talking to someone else, asking them to hold them before they die. The rest are probably connected to this idea too...but I might be wrong.
I JUST LOOOVE THIS SONG!!!!
All I know is that the line: "blue skies bring tears" means that all he wants is clarity. Being part of MACHINA (their last album), Corgan was unsure of the band's way. He wondered how things would turn out. Clarity.
wo....cud this song beeee any bleaker
vertigo-good point. In a way, the bombs could be tears. Tears clean out any traces of gunk in the eye, and bombs, it has been said, clean out any traces of unwanted folks or buildings in an area (social and political gunk?) Anyway, another great song from the very underrated Machina
I think some of this song is about realzing something and coming to terms with something that is very hard to come to terms with. "Blue skies bring tears" could mean that once everything is clear, and you realize the truth, it can be hard sometimes.
I think it's about hurt, and (linking this to MACHINA) is the hurt that we have subjected to ourselves. It's like suggesting that clear will bring tears of sorrow, cause it will reveal the damage we have done. unleash the armageddon/so all the children go to heaven This line... If everyone died now, only th innocent children COULD go heaven, because we are all sinners in what we are doing to the world and hummanity's moral structure.
It could also say that love with another person is the only freedom from this chaos we jhave brought upon ourselves. take me inside your body cover me with your soul to the darkest recess is where i wish to go you are the sweetest flower that i have ever devoured i ask for nothing given for nothing in return
And it isn't bleak: It makes me happy in that weird Pumpkin-y way
