THE WORLD WATCHES AS TIBET BURNS FROM THE INSIDE
*AND ALL I CAN THINK OF IS HOW MANY MORE LIVES WILL IT TAKE
*HOW MANY MORE TIBETANS HAVE TO SET THEMSELVES ON FIRE
TO CONVINCE YOU THAT THINGS ARE NOT OKAY
*JUST REMEMBER THAT AS TIBET BURNS TODAY,
SOMEWHERE MUCH CLOSER TO YOU WILL BURN TOMORROW
*WILL YOU ACT THEN OR
*WILL YOU SHOW UP AFTER THE FIRE
TO SOAK YOUR GUILTY HANDS IN WHATEVER REMAINS
*COVERING YOUR FACE WITH THOSE SAME ASH-RIDDEN HANDS IN SHAME AND SORROW
FOR NOT ACTING BECAUSE YOU LIED TO YOURSELF
THAT EVERYTHING WAS OKAY
*AND ONLY NOW YOU AS YOU KNEEL COVERED IN SOOT
YOU REALIZE THAT IT WASN'T JUST HER BURNING IN THE FIRE
*IT WAS YOU, ME, US
*HOW HIGH DO THE FLAMES NEED TO FLY
TO CATCH YOUR ATTENTION FROM YOUR BUSY LIFE
*HOW HOT DOES THE FIRE HAVE TO GET
*TO BURN THE VEIL OF INDIFFERENCE OFF YOUR FACE
*JUST REALIZE THAT AS TIBET BURNS TODAY
*SO DOES A LITTLE BIT OF ALL OF US - Dorgee Norbu
