Terence Lyrics by Meryl Streek

Songs For The Deceased

0

20 years old said goodbye to his family
Went to the shop to buy a paintbrush
This kid never came home
18 years on the family still seeking justice for this case
Cover ups and fresh layer of paint
Tell a different story altogether
Beaten to a pulp in a jail cell
Thugs with badges and a make shift rope
We'll get you someday shouted from a passing car
No justice or persons held accountable
Another shadowed case hidden by the state
He walked into that cell and never walked back out
Another broken family failed by the state
And an innocent kid doesn't kill himself
And an innocent kid just doesn't kill himself
A fresh layer of paint and make shift rope tells a different story and your day will come
And your lies will unravel and be exposed
Unanswered questions and many brokenhearted
A case left to be forgotten protecting the ones responsible
And how can this story not break your heart?
Never stop fighting for the justice you deserve
This world is a dark fucking place
And an innocent kid doesn't kill himself
An innocent kid doesn't fucking kill himself
No trust in a government who care more about themselves
And this kid was thrown into a cell
As innocent as me and you
18 years on and still no justice
18 years on and still no fucking justice
And this is a song for Terence
And this is a song for fucking Terence
And this is a fucking song for Terence
