0:12How to stop the murdering
0:15By now we should have learned
0:18If we don't then were a sham
0:21Bad overwhelms the good
0:23Bad overwhelms the good
0:33What I've seen
0:35Yes it's changed how
0:36I see humankind
0:39I used to think progress was made
0:42We could get something right
0:45We could get something right
0:49Enough is enough
0:51A line in the sand
0:55Seven or eight thousand people
0:58Killed by hand
1:01They stepped off the edge
1:04They did not step back
1:07If we have not learnt
1:10By now
1:11Then were a sham
1:25When we first got to the camp
1:28Our supplies were not enough
1:31I saw a displaced family
1:33Eating a cold horse's hoof
1:36Oh a cold horse's hoof
1:46We sent up tents
1:48Brought in water
1:49Air drops were dispersed
1:52I saw people kill each other
1:55Just to get there first
1:58Oh just to get there first
2:02Enough is enough
2:04A line in the sand
2:08Seven or eight thousand people
2:11Killed by hand
2:14They stepped off the edge
2:16They did not step back
2:20If we have not learnt
2:23By now
2:24Then were a sham
2:38What we did
2:39Why we did
2:41I make no excuse
2:44We got things wrong
2:45But I believe
2:47We also did some good
2:50What we did
2:51Why we did
2:53I make no excuse
2:56I believe we have a future
2:59To do something good
