[00:44.260]Took us to see
[00:48.874]The bodies lying cold on the bedroom floor
[00:56.335]
[00:56.860]Through their thin shrouds
[01:00.613]Our parents smiling
[01:03.484]As though we'd still wander this way
[01:08.021]
[01:08.693]We wander to the ruins of the house we were born in
[01:15.790]Out the backyard, we lay down
[01:18.916]
[01:20.716]Watching the twilight
[01:24.778]Which is falling much harder to lie
[01:29.221]I'd never seen before
[01:32.045]
[01:38.687]To the friends that we lost
[01:42.693]Your bodies paved our roads on the way out of town
[01:48.092]And our consciouses carry your memories
[01:54.955]Haunting our dreams and weighing sleep down
[01:59.855]And we ask, please give us a reason
[02:06.465]To lovе our children more than our past
[02:11.513]And we pray, plеase give us the strength
[02:18.073]To guard these days as though they could be our last
[02:25.197]
[02:25.597]We've seen you hiding in the window
[02:30.089]Peering into our dining room watching us break
[02:37.075]
[02:37.578]The last crumbs of bread in this town
[02:41.432]Will see till we harvest next year's mistakes
[02:48.949]
[02:49.480]It's true the bitterness burns our tongues
[02:54.924]The salty tears can't quench the thirst
[03:00.730]But we're thankful to have these mouths at all
[03:06.933]Considering desire a blessing
[03:10.761]
[03:18.566]To the ones who will follow
[03:22.514]These cities are built on tombstones and gravestone forget
[03:29.180]
[03:30.143]The wills of your parents
[03:34.471]Chose to be killed before sold as slaves
[03:39.336]And we ask, remember the roundups
[03:45.888]The tinkling bells of midnight's [?]
[03:50.579]and we ask, remember the power of remembering
