Verse 1 
 0:25
Another name carved into stone, 
 0:25
Another mother waits alone. 
 0:32
Classrooms turn to battlegrounds, 
 0:38
While silence screams, no answers found. 
 0:42
Pre-Chorus 
 0:48
We light the candles, sing the hymns, 
 0:48
But broken prayers can’t fix this sin. 
 0:54
How many tears, how many cries, 
 1:00
Before we stop the endless lies? 
 1:07
Chorus 
 1:13
Not one more child should have to fall, 
 1:13
Their laughter stolen by a bullet’s call. 
 1:19
When freedom costs their precious lives, 
 1:25
Then freedom’s lost, and truth has died. 
 1:32
No child should bleed, no heart should break, 
 1:37
How many more until we wake? 
 1:43
Verse 2 
 2:02
Politicians trade their lines, 
 2:02
While we run out of borrowed time. 
 2:05
They pledge protection, but they stall, 
 2:11
What’s the price of doing nothing at all? 
 2:17
Pre-Chorus 
 2:24
The flags fly low, the headlines fade, 
 2:24
But another grave is quickly made. 
 2:27
We raise our voices, we demand, 
 2:29
A safer world is in our hands. 
 2:33
Chorus 
 2:38
Not one more child should have to fall, 
 2:38
Their laughter stolen by a bullet’s call. 
 2:44
When freedom costs their precious lives, 
 2:50
Then freedom’s lost, and truth has died. 
 2:56
No child should bleed, no heart should break, 
 3:02
How many more until we wake? 
 3:08
Bridge 
 3:24
Can you hear the silence in the halls? 
 3:24
Empty desks and shattered walls. 
 3:27
If we can’t protect the innocent, 
 3:30
What kind of nation do we represent? 
 3:33
Final Chorus 
 3:40
Not one more child, not one more dream, 
 3:40
No more blood spilled in between. 
 3:46
If justice sleeps, then we must rise, 
 3:52
For every tear in a mother’s eyes. 
 3:58
No child should bleed, no heart should break, 
 4:03
How many more until we wake?Not one more child... 
 4:09
Not one more child... 
 4:22
