There are children standing here
Arms outstretched into the sky
Tears drying on their face.
He has been here.
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
Fathers lost without a trace.
A nation blind to their disgrace
Since he's been here.
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
Only sadness
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
only sadness
only sadness
Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says
He has been here.
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
only sadness
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
Only sadness
There are children standing here
Arms outstretched into the sky
But no one asks the question why
He has been here.
Old men kneel and accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Yes, he has been here.
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
only sadness
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
only sadness
And I see no bravery
No bravery in your eyes anymore
only sadness
only sadness
