    Witness

    I’m uptight, watched the news tonight
    It’s on my mind, can’t unsee their plight

    A young child of war, desperate and alone
    Stood weeping on their bones, no shelter nor no home
    Orphaned in the sadness, a victim of dragons madness
    With it’s lust for killing, of which we all bear witness

    A daughter a mother, a bride a lover
    Knelt crying in the rubble, family taken from her
    Indiscriminate and malicious, an attack so vicious
    The innocent killing, of which we all bear witness

    Too old to survive, under tarps they cried
    Laid starving together, in the camps they died
    Famine and sickness, there is no forgiveness
    No relief just killing, of which we all bear witness

    He’s never born arms, never caused any harm
    Yet he’s tortured and slaughtered, on his mourning farm
    He was seen as extremist, in the genocide business
    Another sectarian killing, of which we all bear witness

    Watched the news tonight, can’t unsee their fight
    We never object, just change channel and forget
    What will history deduce? What will be our excuse?
    What did we do? When we all knew.

    We all knew, Witness
