Vigil

You took all we had away
You're quick to call it sick, but we've been damned to say

I can't breathe, it's a cellphone, please, don't shoot
I need to get home, I'm on my knees, begging please
So you're just following orders
They just keep falling on us
How many more will it last?
Why not just take all of us?

You took all our hope away
We try to keep it down, but we're all damned to say

I can't breathe, it's a cellphone, please, don't shoot
I need to get home, I'm on my knees, begging please
So you're just following orders
They just keep falling on us
How many more will it last?
Why not just take all of us?

We won't take this quietly
(Won't you help me run now)

How to take a life, we'll never get them back
(Won't you help me run now)

I can't breathe, it's a cellphone, please, don't shoot
I need to get home, I'm on my knees, begging please
