The Camp |
| I saw children through a fence |
| Standing by blue canvas tents |
| I called to them, they move like ghosts |
| Gliding silent and remote |
| A girl who smiled was a straight lie |
| Looked like a creature out of time |
| A grey boy burned by cigarettes |
| Pushed his scarred hands through the fence |
| When I turned, and tried to run |
| I saw ten thousand children |
| Were laid in lines wrapped in white sheets |
| Along a godforsaken street |
| I prayed an angel from the clouds |
| Would free the children, free them, oh oh |
| I prayed and waited for an age |
| I waited but no angel came |
| I prayed an angel from the clouds |
| Would free the children, free them, oh oh |
| I prayed and waited for an age |
| I waited but no angel came |
| I prayed an angel from the clouds |
| Would free the children, free them, oh oh |
| I prayed and waited for an age |
| I waited but no angel came |
| I prayed an angel from the clouds |
| Would free the children, free them, oh oh |
| I prayed and waited for an age |
| I waited but no angel came |
| I prayed an angel would come, but no angel came |
| I prayed an angel would come, but no angel came |
| I prayed an angel would come, but no angel came |
| I prayed an angel would come, but no angel came |
