Run Children Run Run Run

4K | 2:05 | 192K audio
A dark protest song and visual piece by Martin Newbold about children reduced to numbers, official silence, automatic replies, and the failure of institutions to answer real safeguarding questions.
The track builds around the chant:
“Run, children, run — run, run, run.”
It attacks the cold language of bureaucracy — “not our constituent,” “we cannot act,” “they’ve moved” — and turns it into a direct accusation against a system that hides behind process while families are left without answers.
A visual companion to The Stealing of Emily, the video uses political cartoon imagery, empty-hearted officials, automatic letters, and the repeated symbol of children running from a system that claims to protect them.
Written and performed by Martin Newbold.
