Collateral Damage

Hunted for their views
Difference of opinion
Used as an excuse

There's an emergency
Bodies broken
Because they don't look the same
Lifelines fractured, children orphaned

Bruised with scars
Of yesterday
The bullies who assaulted
Enablers that looked away

Holding a dark cloud in front of the sun
You're playing with a loaded gun

There's an emergency
Bodies broken
Because they don't look the same
Lifelines fractured, children orphaned

20 people chased one boy
Threatening his life
He could only go for so long
Trying to outrun the knife

Crimson fountains
The ballet of strife
Here lies the body of an innocent
Fighting to stay alive

Crimson fountains
The ballet of strife
Here lies the body of an innocent
Fighting to stay alive
Keep trying to wash the guilt off
The stains are in your mind
