Lyrics
By John Flynn You worked with your father in the fields that day When the soldiers came When the soldiers came Run Azizullah! he cried and you obeyed When the soldiers came that day Maybe it was not entirely their fault As the soldiers claim As the soldiers claim They fired warning shots and ordered you to halt When the soldiers came that day We know there is something called the fog of war That the soldiers blame That the soldiers blame Though the land they were trespassing on was yours When the soldiers came that day 5.56 milometer NATO rounds When the soldiers aimed When the soldiers aimed Opened up your body as they brought you down When the soldiers came that day Maybe they were doing just what they’d been told To the soldier’s shame To the soldiers shame Maybe they could not tell you were twelve years old When the soldiers came that day Fervently we wrap the flag around our eyes In the soldier’s name In the soldier’s name We shared the guilt but we did not apologize When the soldier’s came that day Azizullah like you your country has been caught In a soldier’s game In a soldier’s game May Allah heal the fear and pain that you were taught When the soldiers came that day Azizullah on Golgatha The soldiers put nails through The hands and feet of someone meek and innocent as you (c) 2004 Flying Stone Music
