Tears in their eyes
And tears on their face
Is it a surprise,
This terrible disgrace?
Children are killing
Guns are in their hands?
Evil's now thrilling?
How hard is this to understand?
A day like any another;
But blood starts to run,
Somebody's brother
Is carrying a gun
Children are killing
Guns are in their hands?
Evil's now thrilling?
How hard is this to understand?
Floors hold the victims
And closets the screams
Where is the system
That can fix shattered dreams?
Children are killing
Guns are in their hands?
Evil's now thrilling?
How hard is this to understand?
Eyes once so innocent
Now seeing such fear
Each one's more vigilant
Afraid of what's near
Children are killing
Guns are in their hands?
Evil's now thrilling?
How hard is this to understand?
Something is happening
Our world is all mad
Headlines are saddening
An orphan has gone bad...
Children are killing:
Guns are in their hands?
Evil's now thrilling?
How hard is this to understand?
What will we all do now
To settle this wrong
We cannot continue to allow
The theme of this song
Children are killing:
Guns are in their hands?
Evil's now thrilling?
How hard is this to understand?
Greetings Joy. A well written poignant poetic piece expressing the current suffering in America. It seems to happen too frequently now, indiscriminate killings in schools! Young adults shouldn't have access to fire-arms. You expressed the situation very well in verse and rhyme. Blessings to you. I really enjoyed the song you posted - very powerful with a good message. Thank you for sharing. Love love, Andrew. Bye.
