Crawl into the night
In the bush I'm
Safe and out of sight
From the killer next
Door there's no respite
From the blade, the stone, the pit
Nowhere to run
The last one standing, I'm the only one
Family of twelve killed before my eyes
Still hear their screams still hear their cries
In Kigali my friend
You did things I can't comprehend
Became a killer overnight
Genocide at the speed of light
And you the promised lands
With your council of folded hands
So meek it's a disgrace
Your hands aren't clean of the bloodshed in this place
For sixty-seven days, lived in a bush behind a shack
Mary fed me brought me back
The grip of death he touched my back
In Kigali my friend
You did things I can't comprehend
Became a killer overnight
Genocide at the speed of light
Can't trust any more
Took my soul and so much more
Don't wanna feel love I'm afraid
It's one more thing you'll take away
So now into the light
I should forgive and make it right
Trust in my faith to get me through
While I learn to live amongst you
In Kigali my friend
You did things I can't comprehend
Became a killer overnight
Genocide at the speed of light
