AMERICAN’T
(Converted from cry down)
(6-7-8-9)
Cry your eyes down America
Cry down your shameful eyes
Honor drowns in our silence
From too many political lies
Cry; cry down your quiet eyes
To this snake that learned to fly
..
Hang that head down
Slip the knot around
Slip the knot forward
Hear the crowd’s whisper
As her feet dangle down
We, a country without a sound
America, hang your head down
.
A country gasping for words
Echoing our fathers past
Hover over the hanging crowd
Can’t you hear the shouting’s pass?
Just one voice in our America
To lead a chorus to change the mass
Won’t you stand up?
Stand up don’t let this time pass!
.
Cry your eyes down America
Cry down your cut down eyes
A deafening dying all around
Free tears quietly fall without a sound
Camouflaged from the crowd of America
Liberty’s eyes are turning down
In a political reason without treason
Walls will fall as we cry down
Gather one and all into the halls of America
.
.
Cry!
