Half a hundred orphans Orphaned by choice By shame "God's will" "In his name" "Abominations, every one" "Abomination" That's my son Someone's daughter - Late one night Looking for a bite, no fight Gunned down In the name of god For the love of God No fight Dead. On a club dance floor One dead, two dead Dozens more Alive - Orphans parents live They give They grieve They cry Changing minds Changing clothes Changing lives Goodbye for real, not by choice this time One man - One gun One night No one could put up a fight. Goodbye - Mom and Dad say We didn't mean goodbye that way
