Warzone
Story about a place, story about a stone
Story about a child, wandering all alone
He is an orphan, like most of his friends
The ones that are still alive, I suppose
A tearful mother looking for her daughter
In the dusty roads where millions died
She wondered: will they ever end this slaughter?
And then sighed
Because she already knows the answer:
There is no hope to survive
Story about a place, story about a stone
Oh wait, this is not a story
Because we know it's true
Because we faced this outrage too
But we're still here aren't we?
And so will you be, probably
Just keep your hopes up
**For it will soon be just a painful memory
Pray for Gaza.
