stuck between sweet melody and bitter words... don't know if i should nod my head or shed some tears

stuck between sweet melody and bitter words.... don't know if i should nod my head or shed some tears

“Whose heart is this? To who’s hollow chest does it belong” just take my life

For the children of the Yobe Massacre, for the people of the Nyanya bombings, for the 200+ girls still waiting and for all the nameless, faceless victims of a nation in crisis.
