Mark Heard - How Many Tears lyrics

Artist: Mark Heard

album: Dry Bones Dance


Gunmetal grey for golden rules
White hot steel for the comfort of fools
Molten wills in iron hands
Forge new sons for the Motherland
How many tears will fall down
How many tears must fall
How many tears will stain this ground
How many tears must fall
Hidden mounds in jungle dust
Youthful voices forever lie hushed
Poets and peasants know the truth
But what in the world can one man do
How many tears will fall down
How many tears must fall
How many tears will stain this ground
How many tears must fall
A mother's eyes ache with her hatred
Her lips they are crippled with fear
She waits for the news that she don't want to hear
How many tears
How many tears
How many tears must fall down
Ain't no funerals
Ain't no prayers
Ain't no blood in the Government Square
Reign of terror
True and tried
Dries the eyes before they've cried
How many tears will fall down
How many tears must fall
How many tears will stain this ground
How many tears must fall
How many tears
How many tears will fall down
