Remember Our Names
Haley J Perkins
There's herstory in this place
Even sadness can't erase
Trails of hurting, dampness, and must
Scraps of yearning, trembling dust
In the ember-filled sky
We will soar like butterflies
The burdens we carry
Won't keep us down
And when we're buried
Our story will still be around
We'll fly from the darkness
Like moths to the flame, flame, flame
But will you remember
Will you remember
Will you remember
Our names
You can be the seed, I'll be the rain
We'll birth some beauty from this pain
Let's grow our Eden, under the Sun
We are different, but we are one
Scattered pieces, but we're not broken
Oh, our lives won't go unspoken
Burdens we carry
Won't keep us down, down, down
And when we're buried
Our story will still be around
We'll fly from the darkness
Like moths to the flame, flame, flame
But will you remember
You've got to remember
Will you remember
Our names
Burdens we carry
Won't keep us down, down, down
And when we're buried
Our story will still be around
We'll fly from the darkness
Like moths to the flame, flame, flame
But will you remember
You've got to remember
You must remember
Our names
