For Mona Mahmudnizhad

lyrics

Your green eyes would say it all
Of that I'm sure, I have no doubt
To see you still standing tall
Against a prison wall with no way out

They told you 'Recant your faith
And you can leave this place
There will be no more torture
Let go of all you believe
You know you've been deceived
You've been mislead we're sure'

She found the strength to give up her life
It must be latent within all of us, awakened by strife
The finest gift that she ever could give
She kissed the noose before she died but her soul still lives

No trace of contention, no fear or hesitation
Only endearing sweetness
Self-sacrifice and honesty, upholding all the truths
No sign of pain or weakness

They never ceased to ask of you:
'Deny your faith and you
Can take the easy way out
Here's freedom if you comply
If not then you must die
Your time is running out'

She found the strength to give up her life
It must be latent within all of us, awakened by strife
The finest gift that she ever could give
She kissed the noose before she died but her soul still lives

Blinded by prejudice,
A mockery of justice
They have only strengthened what they set out to destroy
Pure souls were lost upon,
A sea of darkness far from home
Changed hunger into laughter,
You turned sadness into joy

She found the strength to give up her life
It must be latent within all of us, awakened by strife
The finest gift that she ever could give
She kissed the noose before she died but her soul still lives
On and on
