Temperamental state we're in  Daily fight for our life begins  No weekly income means starvation  Taken prisoner by our nation  Across the seas the war is still strong  Too many people feel they don't belong  A worldly separation of the heart  By countless leaders these things start  They will never feel your sorrows  They never feel your pain  They will rob you til you bleed  Then they'll throw you away  They will never see your children  They will never hear them cry  They will never have to answer  When your children ask why
