I Heard a Cry

I heard a cry far away
 Lingering, echoing its way
 A wave piercing my brain
 Somebody calling its name
 I heard a cry far away
 Lingering, echoing its way
 A wave piercing my brain
 Somebody calling your name
 For what it was
 In the victim's eye
 Hey, just a dead end
 Became a fatal cry
 Accusers accused of
 Redeeming, repeating the old sins
 Pointing fingers covered in young blood
 It wasn't your intention
 You just sold the land you called your own
 And yet you said, "Let's keep pretending"
 Oh, can't you see the damage is done?
 But I heard a cry far away
 We all heard a cry far away
 I heard a cry far away
 Lingering, echoing its way
 Hey, it's not a dead end
 We won't break the chain
 I heard a cry far away
 Lingering, echoing its way
 A wave piercing my brain
 Somebody calling your name
 I heard a cry far away
 Lingering, echoing its way
 Hey, it's not a dead end
 We won't break the chain
