Strength Lyrics

mamma, she cries murder  
sister, she cries fear  
brother, he cries anger  
but darling, I cry tears  

let her live but let him die and his blood will wash away her eyes  
she deserves to see what life would be like without his hands  
lifting feathers from her back  

well I'd sure hate to see you alone  
what would I do without you  
I'd sure hate to lose you, now that you've gone away  
 
mamma, she cries rape  
brother thinks it's too late  
sister says she's dead  
and darling I need strength  
 
they want love  
they want love  
they want love  
they want love  
all I need is strength  
and when I'm weak  
who do I have to thank?
