I see no logic, I see no gains, I see no sides, I see no one survive
I see smoke, I see ruins, I see death, I see misery, I see homicide
I hear cries, I hear sobs, I hear silence, I hear them call
I hear bombs, I hear blasts, I hear rockets, I hear it all
I am far away yet not far enough to not feel the pain
I wonder how may the rest of humanity survives the fail
I tremble in my sleep, I shiver in my dreams, I wobble in my walks
I struggle in the day, I shudder in the night, I suffer in my thoughts
I can’t hear no more, I can’t see no more, I can think no more
I see no boundaries, I see no divide, I see apartheid, I see Palestine
Palestine O Palestine!
