I Heard a Cry

I heard a cry far away

Lingering echoing its way

A wave piercing my brain

Somebody calling its name

I heard a cry far away

Lingering echoing its way

A wave piercing my brain

Somebody calling your name

For what it was

In the victim's eye

Hey just a dead end

Became a fatal cry

Accusers accused of

Redeeming repeating the old sins

Pointing fingers covered in young blood

It wasn't your intention

You just sold the land you called your own

And yet you said Let's keep pretending

Oh can't you see the damage is done

But I heard a cry far away

We all heard a cry far away

I heard a cry far away

Lingering echoing its way

Hey it's not a dead end

We won't break the chain

I heard a cry far away

Lingering echoing its way

A wave piercing my brain

Somebody calling your name

I heard a cry far away

Lingering echoing its way

Hey it's not a dead end

We won't break the chain
