Cry for liberty

Look at this courageous young men
their lifeless bodies are lying in the streets
shot down by machine guns
their only weapon was the truth
a peacefull fight they fought
for freedom and liberty the marched
A cry for liberty
the world just can't ignore
A cry for liberty
Why do we ignore
Again and again
people aree opressed
violence is religion-injustice is the law
did we learn what they thought?
a hopeless fight they fought
astonished we stood still
they had to pay the bill
They stood up for their rights
they chose a peaceful fight
their words were just ignored
their hopes died by the sword
