Outside the Government, Beyond the police...


Can you hear above the screams of the dying?
Can you see above the blood of the murdered?
Can you breathe above the smell of the gun smoke?
Can you love above the anger of the warmongering?
Can you live above the hate of the world?
Can you stand against the tide of the majority?
Can you fight the will of the many?
Can you?
Can you?

Can you be the soldier without a gun?
Can you be the knight without a sword?
Can you be The Resistance without arms?
Can you be the one to change the world with peace?
Can you?
Can you?

Can you stand up for freedom?
Can you fight with peace when they tell you no?
Can you be the one to carry the torch of pacifistic nature?
Can you carry its flame, and kindle it?
Can you swim against the tide?
Can you kill with your words, without harming a soul?
Can you be the stronger warrior, the one with a dream not a knife?
Can you?
Can you?
