Death Won't Stop

It crept up silently behind us.
Our lives were too busy to notice.
Suffering went on without any hope.
Agony and pain were known all too well.
Our happy spirits have turned for the worst.
Death won't stop to say "sorry."

Invisible Children

A child is alone.
A child is crying.
A child is needy.
A child is gone.

While we walk to our bedrooms,
They walk miles to find sleep tonight.
While we sleep in peace and comfort,
They sleep with the fear of being taken and killed.
While we live our lives,
They are invisible children.

Children are stolen.
Children are murdered.
Children are soldiers.
Children are gone.

While we go to school freely,
They study in hiding.
While we are having fun with our friends,
They are being stolen and forced to be soldiers.
While we live our lives,
They are invisible children.

Children lose their innocence.
Children lose their voice.
Children lose their lives.
Children are lost.

As long as we do nothing,
We add to their fear.
As long as we're comfortable,
We add to their pain.
As long as we have plenty of food,
We add to their starvation.
As long as we live and not have compassion,
We add to their invisibility.

new chorus

so yeahhh. here's the chorus to one of the songs I've been workin' on lately. It's not very good, and I'm still working on the rest of the song. It's not as depressing as my regular stuff, it's got hope. =]

Yeah, I'll scream
And I'll cry
No, I won't deny
The pain that I felt
When I turned off the lights.
Yeah, I'll run
And I'll hide
Alone in the dark
Then you came and I felt
You sit down by my side.
