highway of tears - layla zoe lyrics

shadowed faces growing long on the sand
all disgraces in my native land
sun goes up, sun goes down in the mountains
whispering secrets of an untold story
we’re asking for answers into thousands of silent heartbeats
we’re asking for answers in the dark
can you hear them crying? their voices lost in the fog and the fear
something’s just not right on the highway of tears

i woke up today and felt so ashamed of my country
little girls and women never to be found
somewhere out there in the cold cold ground
why are we waiting, why aren’t we fighting to get to the core
evil men hiding
even men of the law covering up the story when we know there’s more
how can we turn our backs on what’s left of their families
how can we call ourselves proud in this cemetery
how can we stand tall
when we say we know the difference between wrong and right
will the sun come up again
and show us the light
little bones and the silence of a beaded history of abuse and power
this is our chance, maybe the final hour
dead flowers on the highway
the highway of tears

stand with your sisters, stand with your mothers
stand with your daughters, stand with your lovers
who were lost on the highway of tears

- layla zoe lyrics
