Lyrics to "how long" by 3 days in december: there's a child that you liberated he'd like to thank but he has no arms his sisters stares into a shallow pool of blood at a face torn by your bombs a mother cries into the night homeless by your holy fight a father holds his child tight in his arms shocked and awed he bellows in pain how long must they die how long how long do we stand by write laws you don't intend to follow making the masses fall down to their knees you got a plan were not supposed to know dragging us a long with your lies and stories told
