Two hundred and fifteen Two hundred and fifteen Indigenous children who can't come home
Two hundred and fifteen How many more missing? Indigenous children who won't come home
Why did it take so long? Revealing this ancient wrong When mothers cried through countless nights alone The church and the government Complicit in violence How could such savagery stay unconfessed?
If there's a God in heaven, you've been used again To subjugate, assimilate, eradicate the other We're Christian and Canadian yet now ashamed of both We weep with the indigenous and stand with all who mourn
Why did it take so long? Revealing this ancient wrong The elders spoke but we refused to hear The church and the government Complicit in violence How could something so evil happen here?
Two hundred and fifteen Two hundred and fifteen Indigenous children stolen
