MUSIC & WORDS BY WILLIAM CRIGHTON & KIM EDGAR
As if somehow they’d kept him safe
They fastened it with two small locks
Three letters, and a sketch he’d made
They sent his things home in a box
She builds a box inside her head
She packs herself up safe within
No violation touches now
No desecration counts as sin
Time moves fast in the long run, don’t it
Time moves fast in the long run
Time moves fast in the long run, don’t it
Time moves fast in the long run
Bodies float upon the sea
That once hoped for a better life
Human, just like you and me
Daughter, father, brother, wife
Another sacrifice to war
Collateral, a little child
They laid her in a tiny box
Another life destroyed, defiled
It’s not enough to ask the question
When will these horrors cease?
Boxes pile up all around us
’Til we commit to peace
Come rest a while
Beyond the pain and fear
Find warmth and comfort here
