Silent Witnesses 2

[end] [Verse 1] In the shadow of the square, where the echoes still remain, A city filled with whispers, of unforgotten pain. June was dark and silent, as the tanks rolled through the night, In the hearts of those who witnessed, a flame still burns so bright. [Chorus] We are the silent witnesses, of a night that never ends, In the quiet of our prayers, where the memory descends. Survivors of the silence, in the darkness we remain, We bear the weight of sorrow, as we sing this mournful strain. [Verse 2] No mass to ease the burden, no public prayers to say, In the secret of our rooms, for the fallen we still pray. Remembering the voices, that were silenced on that day, With hearts that bear the sorrow, and scary scars that stay. [Chorus] We are the silent witnesses, of a night that never ends, In the quiet of our prayers, where the memory descends. Survivors of the silence, in the darkness we remain, We bear the weight of sorrow, as we sing this mournful strain. [Bridge] In the shadow of the crosses, where the truth and lies collide, We bear the weight of witness, with the pain we cannot hide. Yet the crosses that we carry, also lift us high. [Break] [Chorus] We are the silent witnesses, of a night that never ends, In the quiet of our prayers, where the memory descends. Survivors of the silence, in the darkness we remain, We bear the weight of sorrow, as we sing this mournful strain. [guitar solo] [melodic outro]
