No Bravery

James Blunt

1. There are children standing here,
   Arms outstretched into the sky,
   Tears drying on their face.
   Brothers lie in shallow graves.
   Fathers lost without a trace.
   A nation blind to their disgrace,
   Since he's been here.
   
R: And I see no bravery,
   No bravery in your eyes anymore.
   Only sadness.


2. Houses burnt beyond repair.
   The smell of death is in the air.
   A woman weeping in despair says,
   Tracer lighting up the sky.
   It's another families‚ turn to die.
   A child afraid to even cry out says,

R: And I see no bravery...

3. There are children standing here,
   Arms outstretched into the sky,
   But no one asks the question why,
   Old men kneel and accept their fate.
   Wives and daughters cut and raped.
   A generation drenched in hate.
   Yes, he has been here.

R: And I see no bravery...
