How many mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, sons and daughters, husbands and wives . Tell me what, tell me, and tell us. What is the number . How many more dead bodies will it take to wake up this congress . But theres no number, is there . Theres no amount of blood, of pain, of death, of suffering. What would move this congress to act .
