Tell us a story the children cried
A story of forests filled with life
A story of rolling green hillsides
A story of laughing rivers and streams
Tell us a story the children cried
A story of people filled with love
A story of neighbors helping each other
A story of freedom and learning
Tell us a story the children cried
And a story they were told
A story of forests laid bare, no longer a place for life
A story of hillsides covered with buildings and highways and noise
A story of rivers and streams filled with garbage slowly strangling
A story of hate consuming humanity
A story of people lost to each other only caring about themselves
A story of restrictions and lack of wisdom
This is the story that was told
And the children cried
