Anees - kiss my wounds

There will be rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah

Rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah

My blood mixes with the dirt
I smile despite the overwhelming hurt
Lay me down and kiss my wounds
Beneath the waters of the same moon

How many angels have to die
For you to cry
Under that Gazan sky
There is no hope for mercy

How many fathers
Cry themselves to sleep at night
Closing their daughter's eyes
Kissing one last goodbye

If only I could change
The rules of space and time
I would bend the light of day
Until freedom shines

Like seeds my people rise
Firm as the olive root
We will survive
And when this storm is through

There will be rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah

There will be rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah

When I look in my grandmother's eyes
I see a life of poems and pain
Part of her soul never got on that boat
And the rest of her spirit remains

In her hometown by the riverside
Near the ripple tide of the sea
Cause her body lives in America
But her heart is in Falasteen

Where millions of children
Are living in tents
Trying to survive in the hellfire
But the bombing is way too intense

I've seen dead bodies
In shopping bags
So America can make cents
I can't believe this evil

But when the rains over
Like a rainbow
Love will reign over my people
Why don't you just

Lay me down
And kiss my wounds
Lay me down
And kiss my wounds

There will be rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah

There will be rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah

So why don't you just

Lay me down
And kiss my wounds
Lay me down
And kiss my wounds

I see rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah

I see rainbows
Out in Gaza
From the mountains
To Ramallah
