Look at this courageous young men  their lifeless bodies are lying in the streets  shot down by machine guns  their only weapon was the truth  a peacefull fight they fought  for freedom and liberty the marched  A cry for liberty  the world just can't ignore  A cry for liberty  Why do we ignore  Again and again  people aree opressed  violence is religion-injustice is the law  did we learn what they thought?  a hopeless fight they fought  astonished we stood still  they had to pay the bill  They stood up for their rights  they chose a peaceful fight  their words were just ignored  their hopes died by the swor
