Notes From A Holocaust
Notes From A Holocaust
In the places they report it, if you listen to the news
You’ll hear the press conferences and the words they choose
To describe the facts on the ground on the Gaza Strip
You can hear the measured phrases, see the trembling lips
Uttering words so rarely spoken, eyes open wide
As one official after the other speaks of genocide
From the head of each department you can hear the powerless pleas
The next wave of the carnage will be famine and disease

As the fighter jets rain missiles down from way up in the sky
As the tower blocks collapse with each mission that they fly
As the hospitals are targeted along with everything
As the cameras show us the apocalypse they bring
With no buildings, with no homes, when no structure remains
Once it’s all been leveled by the ships and tanks and planes
Every medical practitioner around the Earth agrees
The next wave of the carnage will be famine and disease

As the Congress writes a blank check to facilitate the slaughter
Biden says he told them to let in the food and water
But they’re not, and nothing happens, but more destruction everywhere
White phosphorous burning any skin exposed to air
Actions making clear that annihilation
Is the Israeli regime’s plan for the Palestinian nation
If you survive the bombings, you don’t burn or freeze
The next wave of the carnage will be famine and disease

Across the world, from Yemen to Algeria
Militias on the move from Lebanon to Syria
While on the Gaza Strip, if they have a working phone
They’re trying to tell us all don’t just leave us here alone
Don’t look away as this happens again
While this world still has Palestinians
Because for all these refugees descended from other refugees
The next wave of the carnage will be famine and disease
