1Strngr - Tears of Gaza Lyrics

In the twilight of the evening where the stars don't dare to shine
There's a town wrapped up in heartache where the past won't leave the mind
Children's laughter's just a memory of the days we used to know
Now the streets are lined with teardrops where the rivers used to flow

Tears of Gaza fallin' like the rain
In a land where dreams are broken and the sky can't hide the pain
Tears of Gaza echo through the night
In the eyes of all the children who are reachin' for the light

Stone cold walls can't hide the sorrow of the lives that came before
Every brick and every corner tells a tale of endless war
Mothers clutchin' to the pictures of their sons now lost to fate
Prayin' for a dawn of mercy before it's all too late

Tears of Gaza fallin' like the rain
In a land where dreams are broken and the sky can't hide the pain
Tears of Gaza echo through the night
In the eyes of all the children who are reachin' for the light

Oh the world is watchin' but the silence stays the same
In the heart of Gaza there's a never-endin' flame
If only love could heal the wounds and bring a brighter day
We'd see the tears of Gaza slowly fade away

In the whispers of the wind you can hear a mournful cry
Singin' songs of hope and freedom 'neath the darkened sky
For the souls who keep on dreamin' of a time when peace will reign
In the heart of Gaza may we find love again

Tears of Gaza fallin' like the rain
In a land where dreams are broken and the sky can't hide the pain
Tears of Gaza echo through the night
In the eyes of all the children who are reachin' for the light

Tears of Gaza may they one day cease
In the arms of tender mercy may we find our way to peace
