We were born in the valley

Of the dead and the wicked

That our father's father found

And where we laid him down

We were born in the shadow

Of the crimes of our fathers

Blood was our inheritance

No, we did not ask for this

Will you lead me?

We were young when we heard you call

Our names in the silence

Like a fire in the dark

Like a sword upon our hearts

We came down to the water

And we begged for forgiveness

Shadows lurking close behind

We were fleeing for our lives

Will you lead me?
