I am Uganda

A dusty road under a stormy sky
A thousand footprints every day
A thousand miles to run from the nightmare
That may never go away.

Just another night under God's starry sky
Go to sleep now, go to sleep.
Maybe they won't come for you tonight
And hope is all you keep.

There's no one around to hear my tears fall down
I walk alone in the moonlight.
Can anyone out there hear my weeping
Would you save my soul tonight?

Across the ocean children laugh and play
Do they know we bleed and die?
Did God mean to let them take our children away?
Does he hear my mother cry
Now they are gone and I want to know why.

There's no one around to hear my tears fall down
I walk alone in the moonlight.
Can anyone out there hear my weeping
Would you save my soul tonight?
