local resident failure - long night lyrics
[intro]
just a long night facing fear
waiting for the bomb to drop
just a long night full of tears
counting down when time will stop
[verse 1]
amira was a little girl who lived without her parents
they were shot to death while she laid in her bed
scared and all alone
she questioned how it could have come to this
left at 10 years old, how the f+ck will she be fed?
jamail was a little boy whose parents went to war
waiting in his roofless shack for them to return
the bearer of bad news came knocking at the door
there was a blast three towns down and they were badly burnt
[chorus]
they persisted, they found each other
formed a resistance and fought for freedom
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
bombs away
[verse 2]
they grew older, they found home
they had children and worries of their own
[chorus]
they still persisted, they had each other
and their resistance was still for freedom
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
bombs away
[bridge]
for it was them that the people would persist
they would celebrate and they would raise their fist against the government
they would kneel down and pray that the next day wouldn’t
be as f+cked as the last one was
[chorus]
they still persisted, they had each other
and their resistance was still for freedom
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
bombs away
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
bombs away
[outro]
just a long night facing fear
waiting for the bomb to drop
just a long night full of tears
counting down when time will stop
