Spirit forgive me for I had sinned
Oceans and deserts, lost souls in the wind
Time rolls on like a cold winter's night

To hang from the cross, the child must died

Fire in the valley ? a suicide

Child in the alley ? a suicide

No food on the table, with war on their head

The mass graved sinners, the no name dead
Breath of life whispers past your soul
A cavalry blue sinner, as black as coal


Fire in the valley ? a suicide
Child in the alley ? a suicide


Say a prayer, say a prayer...
Say a prayer


Do you understand what happened that day
They slaughtered our kin, they slaughtered our way

A manifest destiny is what they teach
Our souls aren't for sale, they're way out of reach


Did you hear the tale of the headless corpse?
A sinner's breed, and the devil scores
Want to know why man could kill a child

Just because another calls him savage and wild

A prayer for the dying, the weak and the old

Forsaken this child, both beaten and cold
Native is our skin, invaded is our land
Death to the tyrant, united we stand


Fire in the valley ? a suicide
Child in the alley ? a suicide
