Billie Eilish – Soft, haunting, minimalistic production; could give it a chilling, reflective tone, especially for the verses.

[Verse]

[Hook]
0:07
Hear the cry, hear the cry,
0:11
Little voices lost in the night.
0:14
Hands too small to hold the world,
0:17
Eyes that’ve never seen the light.
0:20
[Verse 1]
0:24
Across the borders, across the skies,
0:24
Children traded while the world denies.
0:27
In factories, streets, behind closed doors,
0:30
Innocence stolen, their freedom ignored.
0:33
[Chorus]
0:37
Cry for the children, don’t look away,
0:37
Their hearts are bleeding, hear what they say.
0:43
Lift up the silent, break every chain,
0:49
Cry for the children — feel their pain.

[Verse 2]
1:13
Girls pushed down paths they didn’t choose,
1:13
Boys forced to labor, they never refuse.
1:17
Conflict, poverty, shadows online,
1:22
No place untouched, no peace to find.
1:25
[Bridge]
1:28
It’s not just numbers, it’s faces and names,
1:28
Hidden in darkness, crying in chains.
1:31
We can’t pretend, we can’t look away,
1:35
The cry for the children calls today.
1:42
[Chorus]
1:48
Cry for the children, don’t look away,
1:48
Their hearts are bleeding, hear what they say.
1:54
Lift up the silent, break every chain,
2:00
Cry for the children — feel their pain.Hear the cry, hear the cry,
2:06
Little voices lost in the night.
2:25
Hands too small to hold the world,
2:28
Eyes that’ve never seen the light.
