Getting up instead
Now I'm dreaming, a nightmare, not a dream
She can only hardly breathe
And though they do not come close
She can feel their hands around her neck
She knows she is different
They know she is different ("We all bleed the same!")
Just a line to say I'm living
I'm not amongst the dead
There are times when it's still the dark
Just a line to say I'm living
Just a line to say I'm living
I'm not amongst the dead
There are times when it's still dark
There are times when it's still dark
We all bleed the same
We all la la la
Still she lifts her head and stands tall, hoping
Still she lifts her head and stands tall
Hoping that if she shows courage
She can break through the shield of hate
This world is hers to live
In just as it is theirs
Peace is what she prays for
Just a line to say I'm living
I'm not amongst the dead
There are times when it's still dark
Just a line to say I'm living
"Let them see" She begs
"Open their eyes that may see" She cries
"We all bleed the same!"
