The world changed on September 11, 2001 but the truth is, from the island nation of Australia, New York and America seemed so far away. What truly brought the reality of the "outside world" home to people here were the 2002 Bali Bombings (October 12) in which 202 people were killed. Here's a song for them. The bombers are currently on death row but I'm not interested in hate or vengeance.
A million prayers to God above
A million tears make an ocean of
One for love, one for truth
One for me, one for you
I found spirit, they couldn't ruin it
I found courage in the smoke and dust
I found faith in the songs you silenced
Deep down it's ringing out in each of us
Rest in peace.
