Lyrics Whisper a Prayer For the Dying - Jimmy Page , David Coverdale
I
hear
the
sound
of
distant
thunder,
echo
all
around
I
see
the
tragedy
of
young
ones
lyin'
on
the
ground
I
see
the
fathers,
sons
and
daughters,
I
hear
the
mothers
cryin'
Nothin'
left
for
me
to
do,
but
whisper
a
prayer
for
the
dyin'
Ohh,
a
prayer
for
the
dyin'
The
suffocatin'
heat
of
jungles,
and
burnin'
desert
sands
Where
everything
reminds
you,
you?
re
a
stranger
in
a
strange
land
The
soothin'
words
of
politicians,
those
bodyguards
of
lies
While
Guardian
Angels
waste
their
time
and
every
mother
cries
Ohh,
a
prayer
for
the
dyin',
dyin',
dyin'
Ohh
Machine
gun,
battle
cry,
you
pray
to
God
when
the
bullets
fly
The
bombs
fall
like
black
rain
An?
all
your
dreams
take
you
home
again
Nothin'
but
bad
dreams
You
can?
t
read,
you
can?
t
write
You?
re
so
scared,
you
can?
t
sleep
at
night
You
try
to
carry
the
heavy
load
Walkin'
down
Armageddon
road,
oh,
Armageddon
road
I
hear
the
sound
of
distant
thunder,
echo
all
around
I
see
the
tragedy
of
young
ones
lyin'
on
the
ground
I
see
the
fathers,
sons
and
daughters,
I
hear
the
mothers
cryin'
Nothin'
left
for
me
to
do,
but,
whisper
a
prayer
for
the
dyin'
Ohh,
a
prayer
for
the
dyin',
dyin'
Ohh,
a
prayer
for
the
dyin',
baby,
baby
Ohh,
a
prayer
for
the
dyin',
dyin'
Whisper
a
prayer
for
the
dyin'
You
can?
t
run,
you
can?
t
hide
You
can?
t
show
what
you
feel
inside
You?
re
goin'
crazy,
goin'
insane
You
know
you?
ll
never
be
the
same
again
No,
no
Whisper
a
prayer
for
the
dyin',
dyin',
dyin',
dyin',
dyin'
No,
no
Armageddon
road,
Armageddon
road
I?
m
walkin'
down
Armageddon
road
