We were here before but undocumented
They came, they went; but we never moved
I chose a while back to never write our history down
Instead, you see, we sing it on and on
Around campfires, our stories go: we keep time together
Our hearts do flow: we keep time together
Sing that song to me: sing it in C
Tell me that story: the story of our history
They'll have come, and they'll have gone and never have found a trace
Our stories, they are told, from face-to-face

We heard the footsteps early on
Mistaken for the severely drunk
Unusual for a Wednesday
Especially in our occupied town
We thought nothing of it
Until the footsteps finally stopped
The sun never came up for us
We the ones in our PJs
They with unsubstantiated hate
We were a line in his opus
Here we are today
Standing on a hill in bronze
Overlooking our hometown
A vast memory of what was
Though it might seem like nothing
We all died for a cause
There came and went those bangs
And there were flashes of light
We kind of knew what to expect
When we were told to stand outside
My father’s mattress up against the wall
Five by five by ten by ten
Though they feared, they stood tall
And then and there our brothers did fall
No sense in asking why the did it
They were all lemmings with guns
Our ghosts will dance on empty graves
In dance halls that are long-since razed
The cause they fought left our lives gone
They came to find that the village was wrong
