lyrics

For shame, for this, we all should know
The tale of a land where darkness grows
A truth we all seek but so few find
Lets not hush the word: genocide

Why - don’t you wonder
Why - you never hear of their cries

You’re wondering, what is this peace?
From such avarice will we be freed?
But when money is earned, backs are turned, what price morality?
The regret we shall know, the debt we shall owe, when all is revealed

Why - don’t you wonder
Why - you never hear of their cries

The dragon red (the CCP) breathes malevolence and hate
There can be no grief for the inhumane
They will fall

So you must know
You must know
Open your heart
Let it touch your soul
