Breaking the Silence
The time has come
To break my silence
To make it known
Exactly where I stand
Dark clouds hover on the horizon
Temporarily obscured
By the dazzle of the fireworks display
And the poor fools who opened the doors
To a wolf in the guise of a shepherd
Will soon be served up as his dinner
Watch as they first attack
Gays, lesbians, and queer people
377 will not be gone
There will be stoning, and boys burnt alive
there will be humiliation of single women who dare take on patriarchy
first they will target the homosexuals
then they will target the Catholics
then they will target the Tribals on mineral land
then they will target the Buddhists
then they will come for my friends and me
the liberals
and then it will be your turn....
Unless you break your silence....
Unless .......
To break my silence
To make it known
Exactly where I stand
Dark clouds hover on the horizon
Temporarily obscured
By the dazzle of the fireworks display
And the poor fools who opened the doors
To a wolf in the guise of a shepherd
Will soon be served up as his dinner
Watch as they first attack
Gays, lesbians, and queer people
377 will not be gone
There will be stoning, and boys burnt alive
there will be humiliation of single women who dare take on patriarchy
first they will target the homosexuals
then they will target the Catholics
then they will target the Tribals on mineral land
then they will target the Buddhists
then they will come for my friends and me
the liberals
and then it will be your turn....
Unless you break your silence....
Unless .......
