little things (the forgotten chapter in every war story) - making shapes lyrics

[verse 1]
i was on the bridge at sunset where we always meet
with my band of paper flowers, to crown you at my feet
but then the sound of thunder, and you had disappeared
in a pool of blood and laughter from the feared

[chorus]
oh, the boy who lives next door to me
doesn’t see the pain or the misery
oh, the boy who lives next door to me
sees little things
like a b*tterfly landing on the barrel of a gun

[verse 2]
the baby i am carrying is growing like a flower
but my strength is slowly lessening, like laughter in this town
no clеan bed they offer mе to have my baby child
for the soldiers have priority, and the nurses have no time

[chorus]
oh, the boy who lives next door to me
doesn’t see the pain or the misery
oh, the boy who lives next door to me
sees little things
like a flower growing in no*man’s land
[verse 3]
my daughter had no life to life, and i breathe as i must
but now my head is spinning as dust returns to dust
and standing in the crossfire, no family or home
just a nightmare blackness like death, a sad and guilty hole

[chorus]
oh, the boy who lives next door to me
doesn’t see the pain or the misery
oh, the boy who lives next door to me
sees little things
like the way broken windows sparkle in the sun

[verse 4]
my country takes another life, this time one of their own
in a suicide of bullets, my dignity must drown
but then a boy looks up from dreaming and sees a dying town
brings forth life’s saving water, and gunshot drags him to the ground

[chorus]
oh, the boy who lived next door to me
didn’t see the pain or the misery
oh, the boy who lived next door to me
saw the little things

[outro]
the little things
like me
