lyrics

I guess you crossed the line
I guess you crossed the line

Some mourn their dead in the name of peace
Casualties of “survival of the fittest”
Torn roots and plundered land
Some mourn their dead
Some try to understand
A vicious circle on bruised land
Mix of blood and tears
Victims of victims

“The Holocaust can not excuse Zionist injustices”
Compassion is not a one-way path.

This is not suicide, just a slow-motion genocide
"A land without people for a people without a land"
No sooner born than dead, No chances on a deathbed

This is not suicide, just a slow-motion genocide
Children see their future as a destroyed city

---------

This song is dedicated to my Grand Mother who made me understand that rejecting with strength and conviction the Israeli Government's policy of repression over the Palestinian people wasn't synonym with antisemitism or lack of respect towards the victims of the Shoah. She was Jewish of Religion, and Pro-Palestinian of reason, even though she was outraged (just like me) by the suicide attacks perpetrated by the Hammas. This is about oppression, and submission of the Palestinian people, which is not caused by the will of the Israeli people, but by the cupidity of its political leaders supported by international superpowers. Its roots come from Zionism, its roots come from the Western post-war nations who decide of the fate of an entire people from their comfortable chairs. -Nicolas
