Mommy Left You To Drown

For every gnashing flashing jaw For every child that sees no saw For every memory that wasn’t made For every thought that wasn’t gained One drop One single drop of blood One for every child unnamed One for every soul left maimed There is one drop One single drop Of blood into the ground Mommy left you there to drown
