Red Thyme - Sometime In October Lyrics

Shrapnel rain, I can't stand the pain
A pain I've never known
Does not feel fair when a child can't grow

Sometime in April, October too
I am through, being a pawn to use

Saying we don't wanna change
Don't use my name in vain
Why can't we cease fire
We're sending letters, thousands by the hour

Sometime in April, October too
I am through, being a pawn to use

I know there's a mother who's hurting
But what good it makes two?
I've heard them say that an eye for an eye
Does nothing, but leave the whole world blind

Sometime in April, October too
I am through, being a pawn to use

In the fog of war
Is it really justice you're for
If only the dead
See the end of war

Sometime in April, October too
I am through, being a pawn to use

Trust in your leaders
Teachers, priests, and schools
But in these places of refuge, they're still after you

Sometime in April, October too
I am through, being a pawn to use

Sometime in April, October too
I am through, being a pawn to use

Said I am through, being a pawn to use
Thanks for watching
