about

This song was written to pay homage to all the hurt and the fatalities of Indigenous and Inuit women living on the streets. In hopes to break the stigma surrounding those who are struggling and lend a helping hand. We can all make a difference.

lyrics

She remembers
She remembers long ago
a time when the buffalo roamed
when the children weren’t hurting and the women weren’t crying
She remembers long ago
A time when the men would hunt
In the snow

Instrumental intro

How did she get here you ask yourself?
Standing on the corner with her hand held out
A million people, pass her by
They won’t look her in the eye

She’s another face that has no place
A reminder of our failure as the human race
Weed out the weak and empower the strong
That is where we all go wrong

Now she cries a highway of tears
Can’t take back
All those years

No where to turn, No place to call home
Everything is taken and gone
Now she’s spends her nights alone
cold and lost chilled to the bone



( Native Chanting)
She stands with her hand held out
All that’s left is fear and doubt
accepts what she’s been dealt
vanish away no one to help

Now she cries a highway of tears
Can’t take back
All those years

She remembers long ago
a time when the buffalo roamed
when the children weren’t hurting and the women weren’t crying

She remembers long ago
A time when the men would hunt

In the snow
Now she cries a highway of tears
Can’t take back
All those years
