Cee Lyrics

Where have all of our children gone?
The songwriter is concerned about the missing innocent children in a world that has become so corrupt.

Innocent of all, the world that's so bad
Children are naive and don't yet understand the harshness of the world around them.

It`s no wonder that it's so wrong
The state of the world is unsurprising when children are typically alone and vulnerable.

When they are alone in truth they aren't that strong
Children need guidance and protection to have any chance of surviving in the world.

Children, children, expectations great and small
Adults have high hopes and dreams for children, but also require a lot of them.

From afar, we see them fall
Those who care for children can only watch helplessly as they struggle and suffer.

Children, sweet children, who'll be watching out for you
The songwriter is worried that there isn't anyone looking out for the well-being of children.

Who'll be there to guide you through?
Children need mentors and role models to lead them on the right path and offer support.

Thought to be a ware of dangers out there
Children are warned to be cautious of the many risks in the world.

In the streets and in the schools
Any place that children spend time can be hazardous to their safety and development.

In a world so cruel who keeps changing all the rules
The songwriter is critical of a society that is often unfair and unforgiving to young people.

Where are all of our children now?
The songwriter repeats this question to emphasize the urgency of finding and helping missing children.

Some hungry abused neglected confused
Children facing poverty, abuse or neglect are likely to be struggling and in need of assistance.

Hey little girl is your mama home, No I'm all alone, these are the words that say it all
The songwriter recounts a conversation with a lonely and vulnerable child that underscores how dire the situation can be.
