Liner Notes

this song is about school shootings
my deepest sympathies... my condolences to the families who lost loved ones in school shootings
#rock

Lyrics

how many children will have to die?
how many mothers will have to cry?
how many more bullets will have to fly?
while on the ground their loved ones lie

how will our children survive?
most americans are horrified
and the shooters are glorified
how many bullets will have to fly?
how many mothers will have to cry?
they shoot kids in highschool elementry and junior high
the children are terrified
the children are mortified
yet many turned a blind eye
while these shootings just multiply
doesnt anyone hear the childrens outcry

afterthought:
do you even care?
you will when it happens to you or someone cloose to you…

Voice and instruments merge perfectly with the text! Very good job!

I do think that making this a "heavier" track speaks to the rage and frustration so many feel about this issue -- the lyrics do as well.

Heavy topic needs heavy music. You did well. The pace of the vocals is just right. Also good choice to make the guitar chords straight forward. Lyrics are on Spot.

Its such a shame that European TV barely talk about the things happening in the US. I was shocked hearing that there were so many last year.
