Don't Use Our Death & Pain

In the Kibbutz they killed our brother

We’ll never hear his laugh again

They’ll never lean up his shoulder

Three fatherless children

Don’t use our death and pain

To bring death and pain to families

Anywhere

The told us to go south we went south

Looking for water we left the house

Bombs fell on us in the south

Fear in our eyes dirt in our mouths

Still, Don’t use our death and pain

To bring death and pain to families

Anywhere

Paint her name on my daughters arm

Waiting, we know, the bombs are gonna come

I’m a parent who can’t protect my child

But they’ll know her name when they find us in a pile

Don’t use our death and pain

To bring death and pain to families

Anywhere

These deaths were not caused by a flood

Injuries not caused by a hurricane

The cause was choices people made

And we don’t need to make those choices again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Again

Amen

Don’t use our death and pain

To bring death and pain to families

Anywhere
