Quiet the drone in the distance approaches We hide, and hope they pass us by Waiting in silence, praying they don’t find us And maybe they’ll spare us our lives
Just maybe they’ll spare us our lives
Desolate village of sorrow and anguish I stare upon what once was home Explosions and flashes leave embers and ashes And now I’ve got nowhere to go
And now we’ve got nowhere to go
Now, as the fire rains down from the sky I see the love disappear from her eyes I’ve seen the hearts of our people all change like the wind A helping hand, I cannot find
Hold on We’ll find a place to call our own If I mourn, will you cry Together we’ll live on alone
Life or death We will not live forever Or did you forget Selflessness bereft You looked the other way As we are left for dead
Gone are the tears of the innocent child Each day you’re cursed watching her fading smile You must be brave little sister I’ll swallow my pride, whatever it takes to survive
Be strong The fireflies will light the way Never stop, carry on You are the life in me today
Life or death We will not live forever Or did you forget Selflessness bereft You looked the other way As we are left for dead
As the flame begins The blackened rain turns out a beautiful display of hatred Nothing left Beneath the flames of where my love was laid to rest
Sleep, little one all your nightmares are gone Rest in piece, and be free of your pain For you I will fight one more day
Echoes of your voice repeatedly tormenting Reminds me of my mistakes How do I live with myself My conscious says I sent you to an early grave Have I sent you to an early grave
