Scurvy from Halt by Foetus

THIS WORLD HAS NO GUARANTEES
THAT YOU'LL SURVIVE THIS CRUEL DISEASE
THE IGNORANCE IS UNDETERRED
IT'S CALLED THE CULLING OF THE HERD

BUT I COULD NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY
FIFTEEN CHILDREN DIED TODAY

THEY SAY THE TRUTH CAN BE CONCEALED
BY GUTS AND GUN AND GERMS AND STEEL
FRIGID MORGUES ASIDE THE ROAD
EMERGENCIES HAVE OVERFLOWED
AND WE'RE COUNTING LIFETIMES OF REGRETS
AS WE'RE WATCHED BY EMPTY SILHOUETTES

BUT I COULD NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY
FIFTEEN SOLDIERS RAN AWAY
BUT I COULD NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY
FIFTEEN CHILDREN DIED TODAY

I FOUND FAMILIES DROWNED IN MUD
IN HOUSES SWEPT UP BY THE FLOOD
THEY WERE EXECUTED BY THE SCORE
AND LEFT IN DITCHES DRENCHED IN BLOOD

BUT I COULD NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY
FIFTEEN CHILDREN DIED THAT DAY
BUT I COULD NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY
FIFTEEN SOLDIERS RAN AWAY
BUT I COULD NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY
FIFTEEN CHILDREN DIED THAT DAY
BUT I COULD NOT LOOK THE OTHER WAY
FIFTEEN CHILDREN DIED TODAY
FIFTEEN CHILDREN DIED TODAY
