SNL149

Why do good people always stay silent
I have searched amongst the bones of the dead
I have searched amongst the graves of those killed
I have peeled back the burnt skin of generations
Just to see if you are there
Still laughing, singing 
I have been digging through rags of the dead
I have been digging through ashes and bone
I have been crying to find you
Knowing that life does not just disappear
Bombs that track you
Bombs that burn you 
Bombs that suffocate you
No assassin will cry
No government will know why
No religion will say stop
Burning with a need 
I have searched you out
To no avail
Why do good people always stay silent
                                                                                   SNL149
