Tell Me Why...

Yay...today is Thursday...which means there will be no class tomorrow...it's another 3 days rest for this week...haha...i don't know whether i should be grateful with the holiday since i have paid so much to this particular college to study and gain knowledge but it seems that i don't get what i've paid for...maybe next time there will be lesser holiday and i might be complaining that time for too busy...i think i had better enjoy now and stop complaining before i lose the chances to rest...hehe...
Today our OSE tutorial lecturer Mr Naban showed us a very touching video...it is a song sung by a 15 years-old boy back then and now he is about 18 years-old...the whole song is mainly about him questioning the people why are we doing unnecessary damages to the environment and why we are not helping those who are in need?...what he is singing about is absolutely true and happening in this cruel world...what we can learn from this song are we have the power to make decision to prevent these sad cases from happening and most importantly we aren't helpless about these...it is controllable...we can do something about it and it's a matter of decision...a wrong decision is all it takes to devastate the whole world...remember to make decision wisely and not carelessly...

In my dreams, Children sing
A song of love for every boy and girl
The sky is blue, the fields are green
And laughter is the language of the world
Then I wake and all I see is a world full of people in need

Tell me why,(why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why

Every day, I ask myself
what will I have to do to be a man
Do I have, to stand and fight
To prove to everybody who I am
Is that what my life is for?
To waste in a world full of war

Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why,(why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Tell me why (Tell me why)
Just tell me why (why, why, why)

Tell me why, (why) does it have to be like this
Tell me why, (why) is there something I have missed
Tell me why, (why) cause I don't understand
When so many need somebody
We don't give a helping hand
Tell me why (Why why, does the tigers run?)
Tell me why (Why why, do we shoot the gun?)
Tell me why (Why why, do we never learn?)
Can someone tell us why we let the forests burn

(why why do we say we care?) tell me why
(why why do we stand and stare?) tell me why
(why why do the dolphins cry?) tell me why
can someone tell us why we let the ocean die

(why why if we're all the same?) tell me why
(why why do we pass the blame?) tell me why
(why why does it never end?)
can someone tell us why we cannot just be friends (x2)

why why?
