Watch The Children Pray

In  a  darkened  graveyard  glows  a  light.

I  see  it  shine  there  every  night.

I  know  somewhere  there's  a  hidden  door.

There's  an  answer  here  we  must  explore.

No,  I'll  not  submit  to  reason.

I'll  sit  and  watch  the  seasons  change.

We  watch  the  children  pray.

Save  us  God  today,

Come  whatever  may.

We  hold  our  fate  and  make  the  choice,

But  we'll  not  listen  to  that  still  small  voice.

Are  we  just  crazy,  out  of  our  minds?

Wish  this  were  someplace,  another  time.

We  watch  the  children  pray.

Save  us  God  today,

Come  whatever  may.

And  I  know  we're  going

So  far  away  from  this  wretched  life  we  lead.

With  open  arms  meet  catastrophe,

In  the  valley  of  the  damned  we'll  be.

And  I  know  we're  going

So  far  away  from  this  wretched  life  we  lead.

With  open  arms  meet  catastrophe,

In  the  valley  of  the  damned  we'll  be.

We  watch  the  children  pray.

Save  us  God  today,

Come  whatever  may.

And  now  to  life  we  say  goodbye.

I  know  the  when  but  not  the  why.

Our  nation's  blood  spills  on  the  ground.

Our  lives  go  out  without  a  sound.
