T’was exactly one year ago
On a trip overseas, I would go
Understanding my roots,
In a tie and a suit,
My other worries, I’d forego.
Visit death camps in Poland, we did
And learned stories of those who hid
From the flames of hate,
From the Auschwitz gate,
From those too blind to save a kid
This blindness and hate, I could not believe.
The pleasure they got watching others greave
Behind their curtain of federal power,
Their mask to make the citizens cower,
Many innocents, they would bereave.
When we returned home, my friends and my peers,
We went back our lives, without any cheers
We could never forget
The infamous threat
With which only love can interfere
