Paroles de Exocet

Somewhere between the shades of grey Where the sky meets the ocean Invisible steel kissed the waves Here it comes through the rain Watching alone for birds of prey Flying high out of the sunset The picket patrol scans and waits For a sign overhead Cutting the spray she pitched and rolled Unaware that she was chosen Minutes away, the devil's own Had her marked from the rest Here silicon heart hummed below Careful eyes checked the readings Deep in the dark, machines aglow But nothing showed on the screens Somewhere between the shades of grey Where the sky meets the ocean Invisible steel kissed the waves Here it comes through the rain
