Like A Thousand Suns

their shadows burnt into the walls

so many lives reduced to ashes

so many homes razed to the ground

a shine like from a thousands suns

betrayed by their proud leaders

and executed by atrocious enemies

so many homes, so many lives

a silent sense of guilt should rise

a thousand books all full with with vindications

simple explanations and coloured declarations

where silent sense of guilt should rise

but a victor's story cannot lie

one modest truth they teach their children

again, a victor's story, it cannot lie

see these branded generations

hear, their bells are tolling

hear, hear them calling
