There was a war…
That never let us a happy moment..!
My papa and my mama…
They lost their life….!

As my mother close’s her eye’s,
I cry out loud,
I’ll miss her so much,
Goodbye mum.
I think really hard about all of our memories,
I hope one day the war will finally be over.
I’ll miss her beautiful blue eyes,
Goodbye mum.
I know that someday mum will get me,
and save my life from a cruel person
i just know,
Goodbye mum.

It was early in December,
They had gathered out of fear,
As the bombs were falling ’round them, cries of terror filled each ear,
And they saw the buildings falling,
And they watched the people die,
And they heard the women screaming and they saw the children cry.
As the skies were turning hazy,
With the smoke of blast and fire,
They were [...]

My head’s in the sand,
And my butt’s in the air,
I’m hiding from trouble,
Not saying a prayer.
I think no one sees me,
I’m far out of sight,
Now all’s back to normal,
And everything’s right.
If I can’t see hunger,
It doesn’t exist,
If nations are fighting,
I can’t see their fist.
I live in my darkness,
And all is so fine,
The world is not [...]

When time works against us
and weighs at the heart
somewhere in a foreign land,
night turns to day, and
the fashion in shop windows
I pass on my way from work
into djellabas, the smell
of restaurants into kuskus
on a market day,
hands all out, stretched
to acknowledge this gift,
walking in the shadow
of African women, men,
with their fear of anchored boats
on coastal fronts. [...]

Our men in Iraq
I never was a soldier,
I know not
his plight to be.
I never slept in a tent
Or upon the ground,
because
I was a Navy man
And sailed the mighty sea.
Our mode of living
Quite different.
We did not sleep
Upon the deck
Our sacks were
Stacked quite high.
We never ate k-rations
Or meals in packages
Cooked outside.
When seas were calm
Food was eaten
Sitting down,
When [...]

A killing field,
a deadly spree,
its where I slay
the enemy.
He fought so brave,
he tried so well,
but died in flame,
a burning hell.
The choice is ours,
we make it fast.
The will to live,
the urge to last
When it comes down
to you or me,
I do not spare,
as you did see.
Where are you now
now life is gone?
Did I do right?
Did I do [...]

I do not hate my enemy,
He fights for all his children free.
‘Tis why we choose to go to war
my child is what I’m fighting for.
We both fight for our liberty
to see our children strong and free.
‘Tis really a strange twist of fate
that sees our love turned into hate.
It is lessen I must give,
I want my [...]

Machines of war
the cogs of fate.
They’re made to kill
and teach of hate.
I worship death
your enemy.
I track you down
Don’t let you flee.
So run as can
and run real well
You’re in my sight
but you can’t tell.
This is the game
Its you or me.
’tis rather grim
the choices be.
These are the thoughts
that I do figure
with my finger
on the trigger.
Goodbye for now
your [...]
