*Uploaded this on private AGES ago* It's a song I wrote about all the sadness that children throughout history that have had to go live through war. This song was kind of inspired by the Hunger Games Trilogy and real life events that have happened throughout history and continuing today. It makes me sad that children are caught up in horrible situations with no say in what to do or where to go. It's like we watch the Hunger Games and these dystopian future films and even learn about the history of wars and the effect they have on children, we watch them... agree... think about how sad it is.... then go about our daily lives whilst children all across the world are still in the midst of war zones. What am I doing about it? I don't know myself. But it makes me sad and I always have wanted to do something about it.

Hope you guys like it x


Lyrics (c) 2017
My brothers on the floor
Hes only got a little left now
He's hardly breathing
He's on his last breath

Mamas over there
She's holding his hand so tight
She's hoping he won't let go
Oh please don't

Papa where are you
You said you would be back
With water and food
But it's been a while now

I'm starting to think that you won't
Be back any time soon

I look outside
And I wonder

Where have the people gone
Why have they forgotten us
We are silenced and we are beat
We want to get back on our feet

There is nothing more
There is nothing left
But we are here dying
Yes we here, we are forgotten

Mama holds me tight,
And she kisses me goodnight
But she knows I won't sleep tonight
And neither will my little sister

There's so much wrong going on
My mind is pacing, my heart is aching
How can the world just watch
Why oh whyyy

We're dying here
There's so much fear
But we're just children caught up in a big mans world

I'm trying to hold on
I'm trying to be strong

I look outside
And I wonder

Where have the people gone
Why have they forgotten us
We are silenced and we are beat
We want to get back on our feet

There is nothing more
There is nothing left
But we are here dying
Yes we here, we are forgotten

I'm siting on the floor
I watch my sister walk out the door
Then I hear my mama scream
Don't go outside, it's not safe outside

She turns around a says
It's all ok
I picked the flower to give to brother
Maybe that will make him better

Then I hear a bang
Then I hear a thud
My sisters covered in blood
Got caught in the mess of this world

Where have the people gone
Why have they forgotten us
We are silenced and we are beat
We want to get back on our feet

There is nothing more
There is nothing left
But we are here dying
Yes we here, we are forgotten
