Trail Of Tears

We were beaten adn defeated
A persecuted nation and I knew
That fighting would be senseless
And their promises wouldn't be true
In misery and deep despair, I told it to my race
We parked our thins and set
Out soon and left our fireplace

For our trail of tears
The distance was much
Longer than anybody thought
We all suffered in silence
Like our fathers thought

We had nothing to eat and
Nothing to drink it was colder every night
The world lay muted as a
Stone whe nthe first child died
Our trail of tears
