Dripping in pain what they show

Now I know

Blow by blow
Images paint on my screen

See them bleed.

Stupid greed.
           
There’s too many more, Suffering war
I hear screaming, I hear screaming
There’s too many more, Shackled in war
Am I dreaming?       I hear screaming
There’s too many more...
I keep hearing  “never again”

​

Desolate streets black and white

Crying child, running wild
Living in fear Standing brave

I’m amazed, dig up graves

There’s too many more, Suffering war
I hear screaming, I hear screaming
There’s too many more, Shackled in war

They’re spreading deeper, No one wins
Time to prove it, Never again

Racial murder cleansed the streets, Mothers weep       Pure defeat
Images paint on my screen, yes indeed, see them bleed
 
There’s too many more, Suffering war
I hear screaming, I hear screaming
There’s too many more, Choking in war
Am I dreaming? I hear screaming

​

On and on, and on and on
Never again, never again.
On and on and on and on
Never again!  
There’s too many more…  Suffering

Watching the scenes blow by blow

Now I know

Time to grow
