Matriarch

Watch Watch where you lay Might be where you stay For the rest of your days Dust Dust fills the lungs Silencing the loud, the outspoken Never say till it's too late Birth of a refugee Perpetuators never pay the price Of their short term processes Oh-oh-oh, nowhere to hide When the air we breathe is murderous Oh-oh, sleeping child Lay your head Close your eyes Running, running, running fast Through frozen rivers Weightеd fabric, out of breath Sirens chanting in the wind Fеar of the unknown Fades to black like a moon behind the clouds Gunshots fill the air Commander of silence Every step taken So close, so close To the border's edge Can you taste the freedom? Child on my breast For you, for you, for you, for you For you, it's all for you
