Unmarked Graves |
| Lost in the annals of time long past over |
| Deep in soil, shallow and unkempt |
| Brothers and sisters, in ground hallowed sacred |
| Their blood, this earth, we will consecrate |
| Their eyes once boiling with life |
| Their hearts bursting with passion |
| With dreams they carried forever |
| Through days that promised the world |
| Then came the black winds burning |
| The beasts with fire in their hands |
| The execution squads surrounding |
| And their children in pieces at their feet |
| …and who stood watching? |
| From El Mozote to Amritsar |
| From Nanking to My Lai |
| From Srebrenica to Algiers |
| From Wounded Knee to Sabra-Shatila |
| From Tiananmen to East Timor |
| From Warsaw to Darfur |
| From Guernica to Halabja |
| Their spirit lives in defiance of it all |
| Graves of our fathers vanquished |
| Entombed in their furrowed prisons |
| Soldiers programmed, show no mercy |
| Following their orders from tyrants that hide behind politics |
| …and the world stood watching |
| Regret, nausea and rage |
| «Never Again» was the phrase |
| Lest not our conscience we betray |
| …as we stand passive in our guilt |
