A mother holds her child in fright
as guns go off throughout the night
they have experienced disease, war, and crime
the memories will haunt them for all time
this mother, with her child, sheds a tear
before now she had nothing to fear
they had survived through all of this hate
for the child, I'm afraid, it is too late
she has cared for him and loved him all of his life
now he has left her with this strife
he was the one true thing that she had
now that he's gone, mother is mad
for this 'country of love' as some of them say
has taken her boy and left only dismay
