about

This song was written right after the terrible events that hit Paris in January 2015 when terrorists ruthlessly attacked the Charly Hebdo building. It stayed in a notebook for quite a long time, too hard to be played.

Sadly when terror stroke again on November 13th, those lyrics were all that came to our mind.
We started ending every one of our shows with this song, remembering the innocent victims, human beings of all color, nationality or religion who suffered and payed the price of their lives at the hands of creatures that no longer deserve to be called humans.

lyrics

A world filled with constant sorrow
Sad yesterdays and dark tomorrows
Fire for words and blood for ink
Burn the page without a blink

Who are you
Hiding behind your flags and banners and
Who are you
to steal the lives from others ?

Among all tears cried in pain
All the souls taken in vain
Mothers and fathers killed in your name
Lost children and no God to blame

Who are you
Hiding behind your flags and banners and
Who are you
to steal the lives from others ?

Who are you
Hiding behind your flags and banners and
Who are you
But empty minds and prayers..
