my tears fall for you

why?
thats all i want to know.
those innocent souls.
why?
theres always something.
americas newest gash stings.
why?

"mommy its the school bell
i love you."
"bye baby have a good day
see you after school."

but now they will see their children
in little coffins that should've been
hidden away for years
so now americas tears
bring sorrow to this girls heart
families torn apart

why?
why?
just cry
tears slide
nothing to hide

once more i said goodbye
to innocent lives
why?
my tears fall for you
america is blue
yet i only utter
WHY?
