Sobibor Sleeps
How many out there
How many are left
That policed these horrors
That left families reft
Survivors, their ancestors
News to tell
Demjanjuk the accessory
Last of your camps Hell
His liberty gone, free since 1952
Deportation granted, his health astrew
Tell that to the thousands, he never bothered to save
As the rains fall, tears on their graves
No matter their age, condition their in
The damage is done, they pay for their sin
At 89 his life's end is near
But freedom he had, not the thousands he speared
The trial and conviction will take its course
Will this evil show remorse
Sentence given as the Judge speaks
Sobibor weeps, now Sobibor Sleeps
