The violence needs to stop but we don't know where to begin
The will to change and help has to come from within
Until we stop and take a look at the pain we are causing
People will continue to get hurt and it just keeps evolving
The best way to help is not to hurt a single person
So the world gets better and doesn't worsen.

Timor
Trovante
Lavam-se os olhos nega-se o beijo
do labirinto escolhe-se o mar
no cais deserto fica o desejo
da terra quente por conquistar
Nobre soldado que vens senhor
por sobre as asas do teu dragão
beijas os corpos no chão queimado
nunca serás o nosso perdão
Ai Timor
calam-se as vozes
dos teus avós
Ai Timor
se outros calam
