Lyrics
[Verse]
The playground’s empty the swings don’t creak
Dreams got lost where shadows speak
A red balloon floats up to gray skies
Promises whispered turn into lies
[Chorus]
Can you hear them crying crying
The American children’s sighing sighing
Broken promises in the wind
Will they ever mend will they ever mend
[Verse 2]
The streets hum low like a mourning tune
The stars hide their faces behind the moon
Candy wrappers scattered like forgotten cheers
Hope fades quick but lingers in tears
[Prechorus]
Do you see the light dimming down
Do you feel the weight of this town
[Chorus]
Can you hear them crying crying
The American children’s sighing sighing
Broken promises in the wind
Will they ever mend will they ever mend
[Bridge]
Paper planes crash into the dirt
A mother’s lullaby can’t ease the hurt
The future’s a mirror cracked and bent
Who stole the dreams where they went
