Walking through the dark

 

Walking through an endless night,
I couldn’t stop them though I tried
Stars are hiding in the dark,
Demons come as I embark.

Thunder calling our name
Though our names are all the same
Just numbers written on our arms
Did nothing wrong, did no one harm.

Confined to keep our plague at bay
They brought us here some bygone day
They took our things and worse, our pride
And left us perish by their might.

And after many years gone by
When I look children in the eye
I see that they have lost their light.
We are still walking through their night.
