Washington,
DC (LifeNews.com) — The popular all-girl Christian rock band
BarlowGirl hits on the emotional pain women frequently experience
following in an abortion in a new song. The track "Tears Fall"
off of their new album "Love and War" is a reminder that
abortion hurts women as well as unborn children.

The
piano-based ballad is written from a post-abortive woman's perspective
and shares her painful memories and dreams of children who will never
experience life.

"I
have had the same dreams many times it haunts my mind, It starts with
a light but it ends every time, Oh so many faces that this world will
never see, A reason for your life but your heart will never be,"
the song begins.

"Oh
what have we lost because we chose we'll never know, And loving You
is better than feeling alone, And all our claims to freedom have become
these heavy chains, And in the name of rights we keep filling nameless
graves," the verse continues.

The
chorus of "Tears Fall" focuses on finding forgiveness and restoration
from God.

"Let
the tears fall down, Let them soften this ground, Let our hearts be
found, God forgive us now," BarlowGirl sings.
