Until
We cry for our children
Our tears are wet a thick
We cry for our little ones
We’re hopeless, we are sick
So sick of all the negligence
No safety is guaranteed
We are ashamed, we bow our heads
How can we guide and lead?
We cry for our children
Their tomorrow is not sure
We weep for our children
It hurts us to the core
We cry for our children
Our crying makes us weak
We hope for our children
We whisper when we speak
It’s fear mingled with courage
It’s sadness mixed with rage
We cry for our children
We yearn for a new page
We’ll cry for our children
Until the world will turn
We’ll cry for our children
Till then, our hearts will burn.
