Song of Guantanamo Base

We have come back from hell
Back from Guantanamo Base

We were tortured night & day
Back in Guantanamo Base

Till our eyes dropped from their sockets
and our hearts missed their beats
as time melted in eternity
Back in Guantanamo Base

Which awful crime had we committed?
No one answered no one said
no one near no one human
Back in Guantanamo Base

Still we prayed in utter silence
Back in Guantanamo Base

Could not touch nor feel
Could not walk nor smell
Could nothing but pray
Back in Guantanamo Base

How we cried in utter darkness
In our bright red overalls
No one near no one human
Back in Guantanamo Base

In those cells or senseless shells
as time melted in eternity
no one answered no one near
Damned in Guantanamo Base

Were you made of flesh or stone?
Were you human, was this Earth?
Executioners passed by
Back in Guantanamo Base...

Some returned alive and kicking
Out of Guantanamo Base
But we're dead and still remember:
Damned be Guantanamo Base
