MASS GRAVES
They’re digging mass graves in Chislehurst
Hearing it makes your heart want to burst
Day upon day upon day there’s so many
Faces in places with families and names
Point still silent fingers to place the blame
Day after day after day there’s too many
They’re digging mass graves
For those they can’t save
Dying in isolation
In this shattered nation
Sacrificed so a few can financially gain
Statistically numbed to ease collective pain
Day upon day upon day there’s so many
No one’s hand to hold silently and alone
In darkened rooms more and more gone
Day after day after day there’s too many
They’re digging mass graves
For those they can’t save
Whilst so many still pretend
Thousands are condemned
They’re digging mass graves in Chislehurst
We shout and we rail and we curse
Day after day after day there’s too many
Locked away frightened and hopeless
With a sense nobody could care less
Day upon day upon day there’s so many
They’re digging mass graves
For those they can’t save
This new normality
A savage banality
As some still carry on much as they did before
Another few hundred knock on death’s door
Day after day after day there’s so many
Blinkered in ignorance keep carrying on
Finally waking when their own loved one is gone
Day upon day upon day there’s too many
They’re digging mass graves
For those they can’t save
Why in this modern age
Is there not more rage
They’re digging mass graves in Chislehurst
Hearing it makes your heart want to burst
Day upon day upon day there’s so many
Faces in places with families and names
Point still silent fingers to place the blame
Day after day after day after day
