Family Life |
| How did they do this to you? |
| How did they do this to you? |
| Were you the weapon that they used |
| As they tore apart the family |
| Did they bring you here |
| As they were passing through? |
| Tell me how did they do this to you? |
| And now you don’t want to go home |
| And now you say that you never |
| Will go home |
| Take a tram across the city |
| Past the places where your brother died |
| Of the comfort for the girls |
| Who work alone |
| And I can’t tell you that you’re not alone |
| In the cities of the far north |
| The skies are cold and clear |
| The loneliness is aching |
| And after all this time |
| And after all these words |
| Your hands are still shaking |
| Why did they do this to you? |
| Tell me why did they do this to you? |
| Were they cut off from their past? |
| Did they try to kill the future? |
| Do we all forget the things |
| That we once knew? |
| Why did they do this to you? |
| In these far northern cities … |
| Who was it that did this to you? |
| Who was it that did this to you? |
| Well if I could have my way |
| I would line them up against a wall |
| Do unto them as they have done to you |
| Who was it that did this? |
| WHo was it that did this to you? |
