A psychologist saidGraveyards may help you feel happier,
visit a graveyard when you are depressed
There is a thin line between life and death, my friend
and I am a graveyard
I am happy to be alive, my friend
After Halabja and Anfal
I am happy to become the voice
of a land
that contains the mass graves of our brothers
There is a thin line between life and death, my friend
There is a thin line between life and death
