Let It All Bleed Out
This Yemeni girl is probably about 6 or 7 years old and received a fatal shot to the face from either a soldiers bullet or a militant bullet.

No further details except that it happened in May of 2011.

swelling of the eyes and face, plus the obvious triage indicates that she was alive for a while; probably long enough for them to have at least tried to treat her injuries ! If she were killed instantly there would be no swelling, since that's a reaction of living tissue to injuries....hence the stitching. I don't think a mortician would sew her up like that, they'd more likely use glue, some kind of putty and makeup to sculpt her face back to something resembling its original form

Reminds me of that song in the 80's by Pat Benetar. (for us older fogies)

"Hell is for children"

Even though the situation of parental abuse and war may be different, it's a fucking shame, when you see their innocence shattered, right before their/your very own eyes.

...and unfortunately, the anger which started it all is short. Much shorter than the lifetime of scars or even death, that these children have to bear.

I know it's been said before many times, but still I do believe, it bears worth repeating.

Christ, if we can't at least share in the innocence of a child, then what other hope do we have?

...sometime this shit can get pretty fucked up at times. :(

Are those the lyrics?
No my friend. This was just my quick thoughts on the matter.

However, here are the lyrics to the song...

Hell Is For Children lyrics

They cry in the dark, so you can't see their tears
They hide in the light, so you can't see their fears
Forgive and forget, all the while
Love and pain become one and the same
In the eyes of a wounded child
Because Hell
Hell Is For Children
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell
Hell Is For Children
And you shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh

It's all so confusing, this brutal abusing
They blacken your eyes, and then apologize
You're daddy's good girl, and don't tell mommy a thing
Be a good little boy, and you'll get a new toy
Tell grandma you fell off the swing

Because Hell
Hell Is For Children
And you know that their little lives can become such a mess
Hell
Hell Is For Children
And you shouldn't have to pay for your love with your bones and your flesh

No, Hell Is For Children

Hell
Hell is for Hell
Hell is for Hell
Hell Is For Children

Hell
Hell is for Hell
Hell is for Hell
Hell Is For Children

Hell
Hell is for Hell
Hell is for Hell
Hell Is For Children

Hell Is For Children
Hell Is For Children
