Use your euphemisms but the reality remains This is still genocide by any other name Too much agony and bloodshed for the perpetrators to hide Too much apathy and bloodlust for us to justify Too much western world indifference to keep this savagery at bay Too much need for intervention to just look the other way For the refugees of Darfur The end result looks bleak Our never ending evasion Their end without relief We sit and debate while the militias bathe in blood The first world has forsaken all of those who died Brutalized by bigotry, abandoned by the world We have turned a blind eye to genocide Not enough tolerance, attention or humanitarian aid Not enough of an outcry to stop the bludgeoning with the blade Not enough compassion to combat all of this despair Not enough resources to be plundered for the western world to care Atrocities committed The machete swings again As our population thinks Their population thins We sit and debate while the militias bathe in blood The first world has forsaken all of those who died Brutalized by bigotry, abandoned by the world We have turned a blind eye to genocide SongtexteThey plead We look the other way They bleed We look the other way They die and we just look the other way Can't we utilize more than empty rhetoric? can't we do more than pretend? Can't we show some real conviction when we say ?never again?? Can't we see where this is heading? Can't we see what is at stake? Can't we ever learn our lesson and not repeat our past mistakes? They pay with their lives We pay them no attention We bury our heads in the sand As they bury their children We sit and debate while the militias bathe in blood The first world has forsaken all of those who died Brutalized by bigotry, abandoned by the world We have turned a blind eye to genocide Aus Songtexte Mania
