How to stop the murdering? By now we should have learned
If we don't then we're a sham, bad overwhelms the good
What I've seen - yes, it's changed how I see humankind
I used to think progress was being made, that we could get something right
When we first got to the camp our supplies were not enough
I saw a displaced family eating a cold horse's hoof
We set up tents, brought in water, air drops were dispersed
I saw people kill each other just to get there first
What we did? Why we did it? I make no excuse
We got things wrong, but I believe we also did some good
I believe we have a future to do something good
Enough is enough
A line in the sand
Seven or eight thousand
Killed by hand
They stepped of the edge
They did not step back
If we haven't learnt by now
Then we're a sham
