[intro – a cappella] Can you hear them in the silence… Hidden underneath the smoke… Mothers holding onto memories… Praying they are not alone… Mmmmmmm… Mmmmmmm… Broken cities… burning skies… Fear reflected in their eyes… Every child deserves a morning… Every soul deserves a life… Don’t forget the unseen faces… Don’t forget the distant cries… We all breathe beneath the same moon… We all dream beneath the same sky… (heartbeat slowly begins) dum… … dum… … dum… [verse 1] I saw a father in the rubble with a picture in his hand Dust upon his face while the world just scrolls again Another crying child on another foreign screen Another war nobody notices between Sirens in the distance, people running through the rain Trying just to live while the powerful play games And every single headline disappears in days But broken hearts and graves never fade away A mother whispers softly: “Please just stay alive…” While the sky keeps turning red Through another sleepless night Somewhere people dance while another city burns Somewhere children learn how fast the world forgets Every bomb that falls leaves another empty chair Another family praying someone’s still there [pre-chorus] How many souls must disappear… Before the world can hear… How many tears become the sea… Before we choose peace… [chorus] We all cry under the same sky We all dream beneath the same stars No more fire… no more children lost… No more tearing worlds apart… Hold on… hold on tonight… Even broken hearts still shine We are more than war and pain… We are human… all the same… [verse 2] I still hear the voices every time i try to sleep Faces in the smoke that are following my dreams They told me I was fighting for the good and for the right But nobody really wins when mothers lose their lives I carried fear like armor, carried anger like a gun Now I feel the weight of all the names from people that are gone And every medal feels heavier than stone Cause I came back alive… But somehow not whole Tell me how you silence ghosts when they scream inside your head How you wash away the guilt of the blood and all the dead I remember one small boy standing frozen in the rain Looking at the ruins where his home had been I tried to say “it’s over”… But the words felt like lies Cause war keeps living on In the survivors’ eyes [pre-chorus] How many mothers cry alone… Waiting for sons who won’t come home… How many nights must disappear… Before we conquer fear… [chorus] We all cry under the same sky We all dream beneath the same stars No more fire… no more children lost… No more tearing worlds apart… Hold on… hold on tonight… Even broken hearts still shine We are more than war and pain… We are human… all the same… [bridge] (almost no music — only heartbeat and voices) dum… … dum… … dum… Don’t let them be forgotten… Don’t turn away this time… Save the light… Save the light… No more names beneath the ruins… No more shadows in the dark… Let the world remember mercy… Let compassion lead our hearts… [final chorus] We all cry under the same sky We all dream beneath the same stars Raise your voice… Let the silence break… Let love remain inside our hearts… Hold on… hold on tonight… Even broken hearts still shine We are more than war and pain… We are human… all the same… Under the same sky… Under the same stars… We still carry hope… Inside our hearts… [outro – a cappella] Same sky… Same stars… Same hearts… Please… Remember us…
