What Are You Doing?

Listen if you'd like.
What are you doing?
Can’t you see we’re struggling
to try to get back what is ours?
What are you doing?
Stop pretending you don’t see
and just give us back what is ours.
We’re convinced that our complaint is justified.
All we know is at some time you must have lied.
What are you doing?
We’re so sick of all your lies.
Is it so hard to tell the truth?
What are you doing?
Stop beating us, mistreating us!
Now tell us, what does that prove?
I can’t stand to see my brothers crawling ‘round,
screaming, bleeding, crying, pleading, falling down.
There must be another road that we can take.
Why does trust and understanding have to break?
What are you doing?
Don’t you try to turn our heads
to make us believe that you try.
What are you doing?
We’re not blind and we can see.
It just can’t be true, it’s a lie!
