Sounds of gunfire
Lullabies
The only way to
Silence the cries
Piercing screams
Entering dreams
Children wonder
What this means
Where's their future?
When everyone dies
Hardly no one makes
It out alive
Told to imagine
A rule at school
Imagine what?
Everybody's a fool
Just a kid, but
Knows these things
Sad that most adults
Don't know what it means
Far too engulfed in
Such menial living
Never stopping to
Give thanks to Him
Keep it going
Souls are the cost
Must pay the price
Of innocence lost.
