lyrics

Oh for the children learning their place
Oh for the children in this slow motion race
Oh for the desperate, trying to get it right
Learning that survival that survival is a fight, fight, fight, fight

Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face
Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face

When the memory comes in the middle of the night
The sensation of a body up against you, warm and right
The distance over time from that moment until now
And the desperate, lonely ache it still causes you somehow

Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face
Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face, cover your face

Where is your home, where are you known?
How can you know, how you grow?
You live in fear, without your dear ones
So shed your tears for this sad year

Lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Alone

Oh for the nurses sick with fright
Oh for the little ones, whose future is bright
Oh for the nona whose grandkids don’t come ‘round
The inmates burying the dead in the ground

Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face
Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face, cover your face
Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face
Cover your face, cover your face, cover your face
