Another Mothers Tears

By clintor

It's in the thick smoke I see Hopeless eyes hollowed with fear Cold and alone, the young grow abused No one will walk through the fire unscathed It's in the rotting stench of greed That the candle lights grow dim Footsteps echoe on the dark face of death tomorrow brings Another mothers tears It's through the dense fog they reach With desperate hands year after year Indifferantly, we tie the noose No one will live Unless they are saved It's in the path of hatreds stare That our mercy is gone from them Sick and infected, our solid gold path Bystanders Of another mothers tears Crying out their fears A lonely mothers tears After all the aching years Another mothers tears
