Just Another Man

She's only twelve

And sells for thirty dollars

And that man is old enough to be her father

He holds her down while darkness takes her over

And he steals her soul

On a concrete floor she lays her head

And she hopes that she's already dead

While the kings and queens in the feather beds

Sleep so soundly

All the world's a hole and i am falling

Too deaf to hear you calling

I wish that i could set you free but i'm just another man.

He's only five a child and a soldier

They will make him kill his people when he's older

And late at night he calls out for his mother

But he took her life

He's pretending to be brave instead

Since his family's already dead

I cover up my ears and turn my head

While he screams so loudly

My heart is open but my hands are hiding

Afraid i'll feel you dying

I wish that i could touch your soul but i'm just another man

There's not much i can do

Father, hear our broken cries

From a world so fallen

Help us see

That in one man our hope will never die

And his people call him

Savior jesus, love abounding

Give me strength to do all that i can

And i am not just another man.
