Tears of Black and Blue
Why do you lie just to keep them alive
Tell me why you are always so blue
Where do you hide when nobody hears you
You don't need to protect anymore
He's gone away for what he had done
And now you are in a safer place
No-one can hurt you now
If I was there i could have protected you
But is it too late to say I'm sorry
Can you hear my pleas up in heaven
Can god hear me to bring you back
Do you still hear the sound of the rifle
Everytime I hear the thunder I think of you
The way it rumbles and echoes in the distance
Like a gunfire shooting off by my ears
Tell me you can hear my voice
I can still hear yours
You were too young to say goodbye
And I was too young to recognize the black and blue
