Living a Lie
Children in dangerous situations lie
It's all they can do to stay alive.
They learned at an early age how to survive.
They don't cry
Why?
Because they know how to thrive.
Children in dangerous situations lie
It's all they can do to stay alive.
Multiply
That times five
You hope you arrive
In time or it's next of kin you will notify.
Children in dangerous situations lie
It's all they can do to stay alive.
