There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
Tears drying on their face
He has been here
Brothers lie in shallow graves
Fathers lost without a trace
A nation blind to their disgrace,
Since he's been here

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore
Only sadness
(x2)
Only sadness

Houses burnt beyond repair
The smell of death is in the air
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here
Tracer lighting up the sky
It's another families' turn to die
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore
Only sadness
(x2)

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here
Old men kneel to accept their fate
Wives and daughters cut and raped
A generation drenched in hate
Says, he has been here

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore
Only sadness

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore
Only sadness
(x2)
Only sadness
