My Child

My Child
My child, where did you go?
From school you never came home
Teacher says she doesn't know
Meanwhile, your supper's gone cold

My child, what did they do?
What cruelty performed upon you?
Teacher says she never knew
Someone tell me the truth

Where's the laughter inside our empty home?
Where are the innocent, joyful smiles?
Please, someone in the light, I need to know
Where the hell did they take my child?

136 schools
Beatings with civilized rules
Culture of kindness turned cruel?
Someone tell me the truth

Where's the laughter inside our empty home?
Where are the innocent, joyful smiles
Please, someone in the light, I need to know
Where the hell did they take my child?

Where's the laughter inside our empty home?
Where are the innocent, joyful smiles
Please, someone in the light, I need to know
Where the hell did they take my child?

My child, where did you go?
From school you never came home
Teacher says she doesn't know
Meanwhile, your grave has gone cold
