Child
Armed and disarmed in a picture
Without happiness
Browsed and laid out on a page in this life alone
That won't heal you
I'll grow up and be a little more of a man
Yet
Another war will rock me
I'll grow up I'll fight this fear
That now is freeing me
Children running on city's black walls
They all know about the love you take
And never give
They know how to sell silence and evil
Their little freedom
They sell white powder to our years
And to mercy
Children, children
Child
In a jar a seed is locked up
Like a drink
You know that each of your future tears
Has a price
Like music
I don't know which child tonight
Will open wounds and images
Will open
The closed doors and a boundary
In this land of men
Land of men... oh child
What is the square in Buenos Aires where
they betrayed
Your father, his past murdered
Desapareçidos
Children running on city's black walls
They all know about the love you take
And never give
They know how to sell silence and evil
Their little freedom
They sell white powder to our years
And to mercy
Children, children
Child
Armed and disarmed in a picture without
happiness
Browsed and laid out on a page in this life alone
That will smile to you
