Can you see it?
Can you hear it?
There in the darkness.
Do you know?
It was sunny and bright.
Now where are we?
We thought they were helping us.
They only brought pain and distress
Now on a train, taking us away
Where are we going?
Where have we been?
No one knows. Questions go unanswered.
Stepping off finally weâ??ve stopped.
Horrid sight, rancid smell
Shadows fog our eyes
Whereâ??d the light go?
Men and women separated
Screams come from all directions
They force us into camps of death
Officers surround the gates, no escape
Here one stands before me
I look into his face
His blue eyes flashed with a fierce will
I shutter, afraid of the unknown
Screams, the wailing of children
Grown men sobbing in the cold
They beat us
The fog before my eyes begins to stifle
I saw it. Feeding on them, the children
The flames devouring them
They screamed, no one cared, I donâ??t understand
How many children will cry in the night, before one can see?
The Red Army, theyâ??re coming, we flee from the unknown
42 miles, we run with no stops
Death surrounds us, picking off one by one
Cold and exhausted, weâ??re dying
I can feel death creeping behind me
They shoot those falling behind
I must keep going, no stopping
How much blood can fall to the soil, before one can feel?
I must not stop
Unknown of whatâ??s to happen
They stop us, we rest.
The snow feels warm, I mustnâ??t sleep
How much more must they push us?
They do not care.
Onward we go
Onward into the unknown.
