[female

Soft,

chords)
The
world
is
spinning
fast,
but
we
are
losing
our
ground
Can
you
hear
the
silent
tears
hitting
the
cold
floor?
Wake
up,
listen
to
the
cry
of
our
children
It
starts
with
the
hustle,
the
chase
for
the
gold
Parents
working
shadows
while
the
secrets
unfold
You’
re
busy
chasing
paper,
leaving
doors
wide
open
But
the
walls
are
closing
in,
and
the
trust
is
broken
You
leave
them
with
the
neighbors,
the
friends,
and
the
kin
But
you
don't
see
the
wolf
hiding
underneath
their
skin
Betrayal
in
the
household,
the
ones
we
held
so
dear
Turning
innocence
to
sorrow,
turning
laughter
into
fear
Oh,
hear
our
cry,
the
cry
of
the
innocent
souls
The
fire
is
burning,
taking
a
heavy
toll
We
sacrifice
our
children
for
the
sake
of
the
gain
Blind
to
the
silence,
blind
to
the
pain
Rise
up,
stand
tall,
break
the
cycle
of
the
night
Protect
the
little
ones,
bring
the
truth
to
the
light
And
what
about
the
teachers,
the
guides
we
should
trust?
Turning
their
position
into
hunger
and
lust
The
ones
meant
to
lead
them
are
a
thorn
in
the
side
There’
s
nowhere
for
our
babies,
no
place
left
to
hide
Even
within
the
blood,
even
under
the
roof
We’
re
losing
our
future,
and
we’
re
needing
the
proof
Separation
of
the
parents,
the
divide
in
the
home
Leaving
our
seeds
in
the
wilderness
to
roam
Oh,
hear
our
cry,
the
cry
of
the
innocent
souls
The
fire
is
burning,
taking
a
heavy
toll
We
sacrifice
our
children
for
the
sake
of
the
gain
Blind
to
the
silence,
blind
to
the
pain
Rise
up,
stand
tall,
break
the
cycle
of
the
night
Protect
the
little
ones,
bring
the
truth
to
the
light (
Orchestral
swell)
It’
s
not
just
the
money,
it’
s
not
just
the
dream
If
we
lose
the
foundation,
then
what
does
it
mean?
Wake
up
from
the
slumber,
look
at
what
we’
ve
done
The
battle
for
our
future
has
only
just
begun
No
more
silence,
no
more
looking
away
We
hold
the
shield
for
them,
starting
today
Reconnect
the
broken,
mend
the
fractured
bond
Look
into
their
eyes,
reach
for
the
beyond
Be
the
shepherd,
be
the
guard,
be
the
parent
you
are
Don’
t
let
the
darkness
leave
a
permanent
scar
Watch
the
circle
closely,
vet
the
ones
who
stay
Guard
the
gates
of
the
garden,
keep
the
wolves
at
bay
For
every
child
lost
is
a
light
we
dim
out
Let’
s
turn
this
whisper
into
a
thunderous
shout
Oh,
hear
our
cry,
the
cry
of
the
innocent
souls
The
fire
is
burning,
taking
a
heavy
toll
We
sacrifice
our
children
for
the
sake
of
the
gain
Blind
to
the
silence,
blind
to
the
pain
Rise
up,
stand
tall,
break
the
cycle
of
the
night
Protect
the
little
ones,
bring
the
truth
to
the
light (
Music
fades
out
with
building
intensity)
Protect
them,
love
them
Before
it’
s
too
late
The
future
is
calling
Break
the
cycle,
break
the
chains
Our
children
are
our
pride
Never
forget.
