A Burlesque of Schubertian Beauty
Echoes of Human Struggles: A Melodic Tale Unveiled
Lyrics
And I've seen the women left to die
Observation of women abandoned to death
I've seen their men with blood in their eyes
Witnessing men with intense anger or aggression
I've seen their children slaughtered
Observation of children being mercilessly killed
Let us in
A plea or demand to be allowed entry
And I've seen them bow their heads like nobody knows
Witnessing people in a state of deep sorrow or shame
Broken feet walk broken roads
Individuals facing hardships on difficult paths
The rich just sending prayers
Wealthy individuals offering prayers without tangible actions
Let us in
A repeated plea or demand for admission
Another bullet shot light up the world
A bullet causing widespread impact and seeking attention
Begging for life but your body's been sold
Pleading for life after a personal compromise or betrayal
Does anyone hear 'em in silence
Questioning if anyone notices the suffering in silence
Let us in
Reiteration of the plea for entry
Mother crying for the body she found
A mother grieving for a discovered body
Young woman screams torn to the ground
A young woman's desperate screams on the ground
Keep your satellite
Disregarding technological advancements or distractions
Oh let us in
Repeating the plea to be allowed in
Circumcising women benefits who
Questioning the beneficiaries of female circumcision
Does the threat of beauty mutilate you
Exploring if the fear of beauty leads to mutilation
Defacing love in darkness
Describing the distortion of love in darkness
Let us in
Repeating the plea for entry amid challenging circumstances
Does anyone come when you turn out the light
Raising questions about assistance in moments of vulnerability
Are you praying to God that he might
Asking if prayer is a refuge from impending challenges
Protect you from what's coming
Seeking protection from anticipated difficulties
Let us in
Reiterating the plea for admission
And I see 'em holding on til their dying breath
Observing people holding on desperately until death
The stoning and the bombing and they'll beat you to death
Describing brutal acts such as stoning, bombing, and beatings
How dare you look away
Expressing outrage at turning a blind eye to suffering
Oh let us in
Repeating the plea for entry with emphasis
Starving and broken into prisons you go
Portraying starvation and imprisonment as harsh realities
If you see what they feel do you fear what they know
Prompting reflection on whether understanding leads to fear
Schubert in my head
Mention of Schubert, possibly suggesting a cultural influence or resonance
Oh let us in
Repeating the urgent plea for admission
