I met an old man tonight He was quiet and shook softly He couldn't get the dryer to work So I gave him a hand We sat together as our clothes dried side by side We chatted awhile Of life and mothers and where the beauty has gone Then he told me something that chilled me to the bone As a child This old man was a Hitler Youth And he still very much believed I didn't have the guts to tell him I was Jewish I kept having flashes of that fateful day last summer When upon a lonely grayhound a boys life was ended for just sitting in the wrong seat I want to cry but I can't I wish the world wasn't the way it is
last - next
