Come out now It doesn't seem like it But it is over You are free I don't know how But you made it You are strong It doesn't seem like it But you have always been Come out Let the sun shine on you Or you shine on the sun Let your light defeat darkness And gift the future a ray of hope Drink And wash yourself The water will clean you But only your face Your heart does not need washing It's clean and pure and grace Breath You have been under the rubble Your lungs full of dust Embrace the space Say something And relieve life from its shock That look you have That look is killing It is a death sentence To the conscience of humanity To be hanged by shame And sorrow And failure Smile little child But before that, cry Cry out loud And weep your pain out Uncover the criminals What did they do to you...

IT IS OVER
Come out now It doesn't seem like it But it is over You are free I don't know how But you made it You are strong It doesn't seem like it But you have always been Come out Let the sun shine on you Or you shine on the sun Let your light defeat darkness And gift the future a ray of hope Drink And wash yourself The water will clean you But only your face Your heart does not need washing It's clean and pure and grace Breath You have been under the rubble Your lungs full of dust Embrace the space Say something And relieve life from its shock That look you have That look is killing It is a death sentence To the conscience of humanity To be hanged by shame And sorrow And failure Smile little child But before that, cry Cry out loud And weep your pain out Uncover the criminals What did they do to you...
The pictures of the children being dragged from under the rubbles in Mosul still can't escape my mind...
