who have time to listen
(A) Acousticmaddie 2023

Can you hear the silence

When the bomb alarm stopped singing?

Can you hear the sorrows

When a thousand church bells ringing?

Can you hear the moon cry

When mother earth is bleeding?

Can you hear the father cry for

children no longer breathing?



Hear the echoes of the brown boots whispering

nobody cares for thee

Watch the masses bow their heads ,singing

Thank God it wasn´t me

Thank God it wasn´t me”



But no one seems to hear the silence

When the war child fall to ´death

And who have time to listen

to the earth's heavy last breath?

They forgot the feeling

Of the wind against their skin,

They have forgot how evil sounds,

When the brown boots marching in



Hear the echoes of the brown boots whispering

nobody cares for thee

Watch the masses bow their heads ,singing

Thank God it wasn´t me

Thank God it wasn´t me”



Our history is screaming

Of all the things that once have been

And a thousand sorrows watching

The evils painted scene

They walk away in silence

When sun turned in to dark

stand n ´watching by the side walk

When light forgot how to park



Hear the echoes of the brown boots whispering

nobody cares for thee

Watch the masses bow their heads ,singing

Thank God it wasn´t me

Thank God it wasn´t me”
