I was 19 when I heard your news
His voice sounded broken as his words came down the phone
A wave of shock and fear came over me
You were gone
Although I never knew you
Hearing of this crippled me
‘A tragedy beyond words’ is what the headline read
And I did nothing to fight the tears
Bring me the names of every last one
That laid eyes on you while you lay there
We will be waiting
We will never forget
15 years isn’t long enough to bring justice to what you suffered
This isn’t only a mark of respect
But a token to remind me of the certainty of death
And how it comes in many forms
But few as senseless as yours
A tragedy beyond words
And the damage is already done
Together we must stand
We need to send a message
We can’t even call you a martyr
Cause nothing good has come from your death
So senseless, no reason
Ignorance is passed on from parents to children
If we unite we can show them that how they operate is wrong
5 years on
Together we must stand
Overthrow the sedated masses
You’re turning a blind eye, this can’t go on
If we unite we can show them that how they operate is wrong
