Where is the happiness of my people? What has become of their pride? Fighting each other is where they are Which is the ruling feeling today? Has it evolved for the better? Or for the worse instead? The feeling of fear and isolation The desperation and loneliness are the everyday bread Each woman is in silence waiting not knowing what the future will bring if there will be food tomorrow is the mistery of her life While people are fighting people and both groups say they are best she is in the middle of everything shivering inside with fear What kind of future does she have? Do their children have hope? Why is the bread so hard to buy? They promised her better stands she's still waiting, innocent and calm She does not know about politics, nor about hatred and lies, she only knows about working from the morning to the night
