Our Burning Daughters


Doused in gasoline and set a flame

you burned our daughters,

And you put them to blame.


You wrapped the fire blanket around yourself

As you watched the flames sear their skin.

“Should have stayed away from the flame”

Burning them in your sin.


Do you think this is God’s plan?

To allow our lifegivers to burn to death?

That's not God; that’s the devil, man.



You used our daughters as kindling

in your quest to burn progress to the ground

Why do you need to destroy our girls?

Do you think this will keep them down?


It’s only a matter of time before they root down and grow

Combine their powers and set the world a glow


With the whole world ablaze

And fire in their heart

Our daughters will rise from the ashes

All of this anger is where we start.
