On the Inside

 On the outside I look fine

But on the inside I'm broken

I worry for our nation

I pray for peace 

On the outside I look fine

But on the inside I'm broken

I mourn their deaths

I pray for their families

On the outside I look fine

But on the inside I'm broken

I see their faces

I pray for their return

On the outside I look fine

But on the inside I'm broken

I picture them fighting

I pray for their safety

On the outside I look fine 

But on the inside I'm broken

I wait for his call

I pray it won't be his officer

On the outside I look fine

But on the inside I'm broken

I drop them off at school

I pray there won't be sirens 

On the outside I look fine

But on the inside I'm broken

I tuck them in at night

I cry for their reality

On the outside we look fine

But on the inside we're broken

We're broken, but we will win

עם ישראל חי
