Who Pays The Price

Who pays the price

The heaviest price

When the bombs fall

And the rockets fly?


The children

The old

The sick and the poor

The mothers

The sisters

The man at the store

Those who did nothing

To bring on a war

Those who can’t fight

And can’t get away

Those are the ones who pay


They pay with their limbs

They pay with their eyes

They suffer all night

And pay with their lives


It’s always the same

Time after time

The innocents pay the price
