Ave Maria
All alone in the dark
Spirits of silence
A voice whispering the sweet melody
Ave Maria, Ave Maria
People weeping silently
Ever knowing the pain
The emptiness and grief
Ave Maria, Ave Maria
Mothers reaching for their children
Children reaching back
Tears fall in the darkness
Ave Maria, Ave Maria
Never again will anyone feel
The sadness and terror
The hellish madness
Ave Maria, Ave Maria
A strong voice
Spirits, spirits
Please come to the light
Ave Maria, Ave Maria
