Lyrics

[00:00.84] A Broken Silence - The Road is Lost
[00:24.09] Can you picture a little boy,dragging wood down the lane?
[00:30.79] Grandma waiting for him brother,playing outside in the rain
[00:36.79] Each day we hear the score,Before not after shots of war
[00:42.67] And the road to him is love,but the love is never more
[00:48.17] Wishing it all to end,enraged by the slaughtering
[00:50.55] Thoughts explode like my head's a grenade and I draw the pin
[00:53.47] Talking to men with one choice to run off or defend
[00:56.83] Must punish to win,gotta let that gun off for ya kin
[00:59.92] Now only laws is,no laws at all once it begins
[01:02.36] From the smell of blood, violence is absorbed into the skin
[01:05.43] And the thoughts of kids caught should torture people to death
[01:08.44] Now freedom is with them, see if they morph and see any sense
[01:11.80] Can you picture a little boy,dragging wood down the lane?
[01:17.87] Grandma waiting for him brother,playing outside in the rain
[01:24.87] Each day we hear the score,Before not after shots of war
[01:30.87] And the road to him is love,but the love is never more
[01:36.10] Not all true pictures of war are drawn in the news
[01:39.09] So we painted a little more like George Gittoes do
[01:41.50] Jaded because we didn't hear them calls coming through
[01:44.85] How we'd savor our days,if we had to walk in them shoes
[01:47.68] Countries can't build without support for the youth
[01:50.52] They lost when their most important resources abused
[01:53.36] Forming our views,and not picking up on the cues
[01:56.46] Inner-city blues stop men from listening to the clues
[02:00.03] Voices on mute,and so we whisper this to you
[02:02.97] No time for school,many children be enlisted to be troops
[02:05.58] And we walk,thinking that the system got us screwed
[02:08.72] Like we taught,just to keep a short distance from the truth
[02:11.72] When scores are born only to be drifting to a noose
[02:14.75] When we can we'll be saying,Lord forgive,we never knew
[02:17.60] Gotta question why men,got their scriptures misconstrued
[02:20.42] And why spending on weapons and not assistance is the rule
[02:23.44] Can you picture a little boy,dragging wood down the lane?
[02:30.79] Grandma waiting for him brother,playing outside in the rain
[02:36.90] Each day we hear the score,Before not after shots of war
[02:42.80] And the road to him is love,but the love is never more
[02:48.17]
[03:00.14] We’re caught up in the visions that you’ve shown us
[03:03.14] And not the millions of innocents that been blown up
[03:06.06] Cold hearts disconnecting us from our own blood
[03:09.15] For their objectives it’s best that they blindfold us
[03:12.22] Can you picture a little boy,dragging wood down the lane?
[03:18.83] Grandma waiting for him brother,playing outside in the rain
[03:24.69] We’re caught up in the visions that you’ve shown us
[03:27.15] And not the millions of innocents that been blown up
[03:30.20] Cold hearts disconnecting us from our own blood
[03:33.16] For their objectives it’s best that they blindfold us
[03:36.22] Can you picture a little boy,dragging wood down the lane?
[03:42.68] Grandma waiting for him brother,playing outside in the rain
[03:49.65]
