Stand Alone Complex
2nd Opening Song
Music: Yoko Kanno
Sung by: Origa
I’m a soldier, znachit ya
I otvyetchik i sud’ya
Ya stoyu na dvukh kontsakh ognya
Ogibaya virazhi, obgonyaya smyert’ i zhizn’
Ya byegu srazit’sya s tyen’yu lzhi
I’m a soldier, meaning that I’m
Both the defendent and the judge
I’m standing on both sides of the fire
Going around turns, overtaking death and life
I’m running to fight with the shadow of a lie
skol’ko b nityey nye plyol obman
pokazhyet lik svyeta istina
No matter how many threads deception would weave
Truth will show its face of light
*Save your tears
for the day
when our pain is far behind
on your feet
come with me
we are soldiers stand or die
*Save your tears
for the day
when our pain is far behind
on your feet
come with me
we are soldiers stand or die
Save your fears
take your place
save them for the judgement day
fast and free
follow me
time to make the sacrifice
we rise or fall
Save your fears
take your place
save them for the judgement day
fast and free
follow me
time to make the sacrifice
we rise or fall
I’m a soldier, born to stand
in this waking hell I am
witnessing more than I can compute
I’m a soldier, born to stand
in this waking hell I am
witnessing more than I can compute
pray myself we don’t forget
lies, betrayed and the oppressed
please give me the strength to be the truth
pray myself we don’t forget
lies, betrayed and the oppressed
please give me the strength to be the truth
people facing the fire together
if we don’t, we’ll lose all we have found
people facing the fire together
if we don’t, we’ll lose all we have found
*repeat
*repeat
Za myechtoyu nakray propasti
Lish’ tol’ko tak mozhno mir spasti
After a dream to the edge of a chasm
Only that way can the world be saved
Ty nye plach’,
Slyozy spryach’,
Ved’ nastanyet novyy den’
Tvoy ogon’
Sogryevat’
Budyet tysyachi syerdets
A syeychas podnimis’
Spryach’ podal’shye bol’ i strakh
Pobyedit tot, kto prav
Znay, chto vsyo v tvoikh rukakh
Don’t you cry,
Hide the tears,
Because a new day will start
Your fire
Will be heated
By thousands of hearts
But now get up
Hide the pain and fear far
The one who’s right will win
Know that everything is in your hands
*repeat
*repeat

Inspired partially by a comment someone left on another blog but mainly enflamed by this: Video that half Malaysia saw and the other half forgot, I think.
Mob rule wins. Violence is the way to go, especially since it means that the authorities will do *anything* (supposedly) to avoid another bloodshed. That protest against Article 11 by the cowards who refuse to let non-Muslims talk about the role of their (non-Muslim) religions in this country? Cowardice and an excuse by the Government to sweep things under the carpet.
May 13 has been hanging over our heads for long enough. Pandering to the fears of the minorities has GOT to stop. Pandering to the whims of a political party that values wealth over its citizens has got to stop. Pandering to the notion of the illusion that a theocratic state can rule under the guise of secularity has GOT to stop.
I’m not saying that if we talk about this issue it will go away. Talking in the media has done nothing but to make everyone feel good for a bit and then conveniently sweep the issue under the carpet.
The only way I think to change this shameful state is to SHAME those in public office in the first place. Shame them and take away their jobs. Make them beg for a living. Make them LIVE in the system instead of above it. Make them **cking wake up to the fact that they ARE accountable to the people who elected them!
Unfortunately until that happens, cases like these will keep happening. Malaysia’s already a laughing stock, but until she becomes a laughing stock in the economic sense, no one in power will care as long as the $$ keeps coming in.
This culture of fear is nothing but that, fear. People are afraid that if we even try to discuss what is happening to this country, people will wake up and see that not all hope is lost. They will wake up to see that there is more in common to each religion than simply the fact that we all believe in God; that this is the same God who says, “Love one another.” The same God who said to one particular religion: THERE IS NO COMPLUSION. The same God who appears different to each eyes because the way we view Him/Her is clouded by OUR PERSONAL experience.
The same God whom most of us believe in regardless of how our religion, how the people who interpret the religious books, how TRADITION AND CULTURE has portrayed him to be, is just that. THE SAME GOD.
How I view my God should be no one else’s business but mine and His/Hers. My relationship with Him/Her is between the TWO OF US. Yes, religion does help us draw closer to God, but what is religion merely than someone’s view and understanding of God? How God comes to us, how we choose to see God, what (and I suspect this is the most important bit of all) God is to us, is between us and the Divine above.
You know what’s the sickest bit about this all?
That these people forget their COMPASSION in the midst of upholding their RELIGION which is supposedly to be more compassionate than all other religions by TAKING AWAY A CHILD THAT WAS STILL BEING BREAST FED FORCEFULLY FROM HER MOTHER.
Muslims who do this are not Muslims. They’re the real KUFARs. They are the ones who are Satan’s puppets, not those who try to understand and be compassionate to those who really need it, regardless of religion.
Yes I am bitter about this why do you ask?
You find on some Malaysian websites. Um, Celcom users who download (or know people who download) are these games REALLY as innocent as they seem, or are they adult games?
I’m talking about whether they’d really be suitable for minors. Cause they sure as heck don’t look like it…
