lirik lagu mandala band - roof of the world
[instrumental intro]
[verse 1]
cast the golden images upon the burning fire
sow the seeds of satan’s cause in cradles of desire
thus, the yellow sea of hate has drowned this ancient land
where once the people of tibet held freedom in their hands
[chorus]
so far away on the roof of the world
the world
[bridge]
hear the cries of a lost and dying race
the dalai lama waits in exile for the fateful day
when the world will mourn his passing away
and the teachings of his heritage will surely be erased
[verse 2]
broken monasteries they lie where once they stood so proud
a broken people hidden by this himalayan shroud
no~one now can journey in to see what lies behind
to witness all those first reports of rape and genocide
[chorus]
so far away on the roof of the world
the world
[bridge]
so good people turn your heads
after all what else can you do
when there’s scandal nearer home
with more spice to interest you
let your dormant conscience lie
wrapped in blind inverted truth
while your children’s history books
retell this tragic tale in a paragraph or two
[guitar solo]
[verse 3]
cast the golden images upon the burning fire
sow the seeds of satan’s cause in cradles of desire
thus, the yellow sea of hate has drowned this ancient land
where once the people of tibet held freedom in their hands
[chorus]
so far away on the roof of the world
the world
[guitar solo]
