The Promise

As long ago as Cain and Abel
Voices calling out to me
Never to be found
This fruit that's laid upon the table
Is this what I require of you?
Their blood upon the ground

Love the children
I know their names
If you harm them
(1)Then I'll know
(2)I'll hold you to blame

And so the lie remains among you
All for being innocent
What a price to pay
I promise you I won't ignore it
If you know what's going down
And look the other way

Feel the fury as I rage against your land
For what you've done to them
Everyone of them was precious in my sight
I will repay

How much longer can you let this madness go
Oh, how I loved them so
Everyone of them is precious in my sight
It hurts me so
