Broken hearts
Your restless souls
They threw you away
Im sorry

Played parts
In heartless roles
You couldn't stay
I'm sorry

Nez Percé Chief,
I didn't betray you
But was forcefully taken
I'm sorry

My hopeless grief
Nothing I can do
As theirs, I'm mistaken
I'm sorry
I wrote this one for a writing class I was taking and it became one of my favorites. Its in the POV of america talking to the Native Americans.
