BLOOD IS ON THE SQUAREwords
and music by Phillip MorganA
song was heard in Chinain the
city of Beijing.In the spring
of 1989you could hear the
people sing.And it was the
song of freedomthat was
ringing in the square,the
world could feel the passion
ofthe people gathered there.Oh
children, blood is on the
square.For many nights and
many days,waiting in the
square.'To build a better
nation'was the song that
echoed there.'For we are
China's children,we love our
native land,for brotherhood
and freedomwe are joining hand
in hand.'Oh children, blood is
on the square.Then came the
People's armywith trucks and
tanks and guns.The government
was frightenedof their
daughters and their sons.But
in the square was courage anda
vision true and fair,the Army
of the People would not
harmthe young ones there.Oh
children, blood is on the
square.On June the 3rd in
China,in the spring of '89,an
order came from high aboveand
passed on down the line.The
soldiers opened fire,young
people bled and died,the blood
of thousands on the squarethat
lies can never hide.Oh
children, blood is on the
square.For four more days of
furythe people faced the
guns.How many thousands
slaughteredwhen their grisly
work was done?they quickly
burned the bodiesto hide their
coward's shame,but blood is
thick upon their hands
anddarkness on their names.Oh
children, blood is on the
square.There are tears that
flow in Chinafor her children
that are gone.There is fear
and there is hiding,for the
killing still goes on.And the
iron hand of terror canbuy
silence for today,but the
blood that lies upon the
squarecannot be washed away.Oh
children, blood is on the
square
