How We Will Fall
I know I've already posted tonight, but I wanted to say something to honor those lost in the Paris terrorist attacks, and those helping and needing help in the aftermath.
You try to crush the world in your chains
You exert your every effort across nations
You squeeze your disease through every opening you can find
In an attempt to destroy us all
Violence
Death
Chaos
It seemed you had succeeded
And put our backs to the wall
You must have rejoiced
You must have rung the victory bells
You must have put up your feet
But what you don't know is that we still hear hope's call
So we are standing, up off the ground
All across the world
Through hashtags
Relief efforts
Donations
Support and cooperation among us all
You may not want to see it
But we are showing you
No matter how hard you throw us
How thoroughly you break us
How forcefully your blows land
We
Are
Showing
You
How very nobly, courageously, and defiantly we will fall
