Killing Thousands by Annie Herring Lyrics
Where's the sun
It hasn’t shined for days
Where are the children and mothers
I look out my window
Day after day
But now I'm closing the shutters
And I shudder from the news
My God, they're killing thousands
Killing thousands without blinking an eye
My God, they’re killing thousands
Killing thousands, believing a lie
Have we lost now
Our country's dying now
Does it matter to you
We aren't free now
People dying in the streets now
Does it matter much to you
Have we been blind too long
And forgotten who put us together
Is it in God that we trust
Have we been blind too long
And forgotten who put us together
Is it in God that we trust
She's young and lovely
But she's made a mistake
And there's so much out there
For her future
So why should she wait
Nine months or so
Just to pay for her mistake
And so we take it away
My God, we're killing thousands
Killing thousands without blinking an eye
My God, we're killing thousands
Killing thousands, believing a lie
It hasn’t shined for days
Where are the children and mothers
I look out my window
Day after day
But now I'm closing the shutters
And I shudder from the news
My God, they're killing thousands
Killing thousands without blinking an eye
My God, they’re killing thousands
Killing thousands, believing a lie
Have we lost now
Our country's dying now
Does it matter to you
We aren't free now
People dying in the streets now
Does it matter much to you
Have we been blind too long
And forgotten who put us together
Is it in God that we trust
Have we been blind too long
And forgotten who put us together
Is it in God that we trust
She's young and lovely
But she's made a mistake
And there's so much out there
For her future
So why should she wait
Nine months or so
Just to pay for her mistake
And so we take it away
My God, we're killing thousands
Killing thousands without blinking an eye
My God, we're killing thousands
Killing thousands, believing a lie
