Come little children
I'll take thee away
Into a land of enchantmentWar had broken out in the USA and all the western states were trying their best to round up as many people able to save them from war grounds
Come little children
The time's come to play
Here in my garden of shadowsUtah, Wyoming, Idaho, and Oregon were all popular places where people had run away too, it was better than being in the war zone that was now the south, the east coast, and the Midwest.
Follow sweet children
I'll show thee the way
Through all the pain
And the sorrowscurrently, New Mexico and California were trying to save a group of children from the fighting between Texas and Oklahoma which had been so drastic that bombs were thrown like bullets in the war.
Weep not poor children
For life is this way
Murdering beauty and passionsThere were 6 kids total all but 2 where from Texas and thankfully Cali knew how to calm terrified runaways better than most after all he was one.
Hush now dear children
It must be this way
Too weary of life
And deceptionsPromising to provide shelter in the West for the kids, they followed still nervous about getting caught sneaking to the west but alas they got put of the dark war zones.
Rest now my children
For soon we'll away

Come little children
The time's come to play
Here in my garden of shadows"Perhaps some things are best left behind in war children but I swear you'll find a new life here in the west where we aren't fighting, though you all have grown up war kids you don't have to live that way."
