Black Monday Lyrics

feat. Bob Katsionis

How are we going to get through this tragedy
How many tears for humanity
How many innocent people should die
Circle of life, our endless stain

Into this burning soil we gathered our shivers
Trembling with pain, without hope
Nothing will ever heal this misfortune
Shadows lay down in this dark beyond

Oh, Lord, give us mercy, give us strength
To stand on our feet, make us brave and strong
For all those fallen, for all those that are gone
We will pray, we will entreat

Can you hear our calling
Can you hear our mourning
This threnody to desolation rises
Our grief, a dance for the descended

Black Monday, the darkest day of our lives
Our mouth is shut, futile are the words
The hourglass is broken, time stops there
Nothing can heal the rage inside

Oh, Lord, give us mercy, give us strength
To stand on our feet, make us brave and strong
For all those fallen, for all those that are gone
We will pray, we will entreat

The freezing wind has brought us tears
A heavy rain to ease the pain
Our hallowed ground is ash and dust
Beloved friends, they will never come back

Oh, Lord, give us mercy, give us strength
To stand on our feet, make us brave and strong
For all those fallen, for all those that are gone
We will pray, we will entreat
