Ashes, Ashes, We All Fall Down Terzanelle Question Ku Chaser
December’s cold wind starts to bite
festive are the lights all around
yet children are nowhere in sight
hurry come quick, what is that sound
a bell tolls but what is it for
festive are the lights all around
something evil came through the door
not in song, yet they all fall down
a bell tolls but what is it for
tragedy struck this little town
tiny children hold hands in fear
not in song, yet they all fall down
they can’t comprehend what they hear
school always was a place to play
tiny children hold hands in fear
many angels were born that day
December’s cold wind starts to bite
school always was a place to play
yet children are nowhere in sight
a church bell tolls
as a nation mourns
why did so many fall?
