Darkness Overcomes

Alexis Karpouzos


The tears of a child, the pain of a mother!
A heart full of memories of a dead father!
Here's so much sorrow, in every eye
Nothing but hurt left here
Nothing but bullets, pain, misery and shattered dreams
Yet for the children of world
Only one equation counts: Their shared humanity

We will gather together as brothers
We will gather together as brothers
And we will live in solidarity with others in this world
We are the thirsty souls of a world without divisions
If we merge mercy with might and might with right
Then love becomes our legacy and change
Our children's birth right
Let's step out of the shade
Aflame and unafraid and don't trust any immortalist
Dove will find a resting place!
