Watch the Children Pray

In a darkened graveyard glows a light

I'll 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

Well, 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 some place, 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 then when but not the why

Our nation's blood spills on the ground

Our lives go out without a sound

Ooh
