ABOUT A WAR
Get ready
Just in case
We might have to go into hiding
The explosion shook me away
The sound booming inside my ribcage
I was not taught to hate
How can any of us be
Will the pain ever abate?
If there's no more room for sorrow
My little rucksack is packed
I'm leaving behind most of my toys
They say war killed my city
Where is home now?
Where is home now?
I was not taught to hate
How can any of us be
Will the pain ever abate
If there's no more room for sorrow
I don't want to flee
Mummy, I don't want to die
I don't want to flee
Mummy, I don't want to die ad lib
I just want to fly
