Mmh,
Ngare
Nderitu
I
never
thought
it
would
end
this
way
Just
listen,
my
brother
The
matatu
rhythm
moving
slow
through
the
rain
Nairobi
lights
blurring
out
all
the
pain
I
look
at
the
space
where
you
used
to
stay
Now
the
silence
is
heavy,
it’
s
leading
the
way
I’
m
walking
these
streets,
thinking
of
how
we
began
Just
a
dream
in
our
hearts,
holding
hands
in
the
plan
But
the
fire
went
cold,
yeah
the
ember
has
died
And
there’
s
nowhere
to
run,
there’
s
nowhere
to
hide
Oh
Ngare
Nderitu,
the
memory
bites
We’
re
losing
the
spark
in
these
lonely
nights
It’
s
a
heartbreak
rhythm,
a
song
for
the
lost
Counting
the
pieces
and
counting
the
cost
Oh
Ngare
Nderitu,
the
silence
is
loud
Just
a
fading
shadow
inside
of
the
crowd
Used
to
share
nyama
choma
and
laughs
by
the
fire
Now
the
distance
is
growing,
the
flame
is
getting
higher
I’
m
checking
my
phone
but
the
screen
remains
dark
Just
a
ghost
of
a
feeling,
a
flick
of
a
spark
I
forgive
all
the
words
that
were
left
on
the
floor
But
I
can’
t
open
up
what’
s
already
behind
the
door
Oh
Ngare
Nderitu,
the
memory
bites
We’
re
losing
the
spark
in
these
lonely
nights
It’
s
a
heartbreak
rhythm,
a
song
for
the
lost
Counting
the
pieces
and
counting
the
cost
Oh
Ngare
Nderitu,
the
silence
is
loud
Just
a
fading
shadow
inside
of
the
crowd
Can
we
heal
from
the
hurt?
Is
there
grace
in
the
wind?
To
let
go
of
the
places
where
we
might
have
sinned?
I’
m
moving
on
slow,
yeah,
I’
m
finding
my
way
But
the
ghost
of
your
laughter
is
here
to
stay
Oh
Ngare
Nderitu,
the
memory
bites
We’
re
losing
the
spark
in
these
lonely
nights
It’
s
a
heartbreak
rhythm,
a
song
for
the
lost
Counting
the
pieces
and
counting
the
cost
Oh
Ngare
Nderitu,
the
silence
is
loud
Just
a
fading
shadow
inside
of
the
crowd
Yeah,
Ngare
Nderitu
Just
breathe
now
It’
s
time
to
let
go (
Fade
to
silence)
