Small, fragile hands wielding heavy stones
Trying to break the glass cages that surround them
With no one to comfort and no one to protect them
Their loneliness carries a heavy weight
Are we so tired that we refuse to run the course?
And are we so blind that we forget what is in our hearts?
Autumn brings dusk to life, the endless night
But there is still time to mend the wounds you bear
Why haven't I fought for you, my one and only regret
Time cries for you, my tears will never forget
Are we so cold that we ignore helpless life?
And are we so naive to think someone else will save them?
The days are gone when I believed that man…
Would keep the flame alive
A cold heart will never warm
The children for another night
A 'man”, lifting the weight of the world
Never to see it all again
Shining our warm light
Onto a cold, desolate night
We cannot bring back what is gone
But we can save all that remains
How can you face the day
When you can live unseen at night
And hide behind your selfish pride
While the children of autumn cry
Today I shed my human skin
And spill my blood for the animals I live among
For the animal I have become
On this judgment day of my brothers, I am their keeper
