Somewhere in the distance
We can close our eyes and turn our heads
Way off in the distance
Another baby dies and the blood is shed
Come join the resistance
It can turn your heart, it'll burn your soul
Is there any difference
In the child alive or the seed that's sown
Oh... can ya hear them, the children say...
Chorus
Who cries for me? I didn't want to die
Who will cry for me as I go to my Father's arms
Who cries for me? Please just stop the lie
We cry just a little
When we hear the tale of a fallen tree
And stand in the middle
As they cut the cord of society
Who'll fight for the voiceless
Yeah, the times are hard no guarantees
We live with the choices
Till we raise a voice and get on our knees
Oh... if you listen, the children say...
Chorus
Who cries for me? I have been denied
Who will cry for me and for those who've yet to come
Who cries for me? Please just stop the lie
We too are the victim if we turn our eyes away
Will we let them die or fight for life today
Chorus
