Lives that were ended
Before they’d begun
Songs that were silenced
Before they were sung
Dreams that were shuttered
Before they were dreamed
Wings that were tied
Before they could fly free

We will remember you
We will hold onto the truth
Please don’t lose sight of your views
Don’t let anyone tell you
We can’t start anew

Hearts that were broken
Before they were whole
Houses that crumbled
Before they were homes
New grief that begun
Before grieving was done
Loves that were lost
Before they were won
