Plot
The two men embark on parallel, if separate, journeys. Their yearning is a common one--for a better and different life. Dondup, delayed by the timeless pace of his village, is forced to hitchhike through the beautiful wild countryside of Bhutan to reach his goal. He shares the road with a monk, an apple seller, a papermaker and his beautiful young daughter, Sonam. Throughout the journey, the perceptive yet mischievous monk relates the story of Tashi. It is a mystical fable of lust, jealousy and murder, that holds up a mirror to the restless Dondup, and his blossoming attraction to the innocent Sonam. The cataclysmic conclusion of the monk's tale leaves Dondup with a dilemma--is the grass truly greener on the other side?

You can't believe, you can't destroy me
None can deny, you can't ignore me
All that you've done shall be denied now
All that you've built shall be destroyed now
You seek a rise but no proceed, seekers
That spark to build a raging fire is you.
I'm Born of Unity
Born of Unity
Wake up and prove you're not invisible
Our ancestors fought hard for our freedom
Are you free?
Listen to me
This is an empire built on lies and deceit
Bloodshed of your innocence screams a war cry
You are the fucking new breed, take no bull shit
I'm Born of Unity
Born of Unity
Take a life and smile at the ones who are crying for
Realizing my suffering, you don't know what I've been through
There's no war for peace.
Struggle - in our lives been through suffering
You're not forgiven
Fight as one coz this is a battle and we will win
Own your existence, live your right
Your half as empty as your shit fuck stand
Your stand for money, power and a cheap ass fuck
Promises rely on premature plans
Your clutches so weak you can’t stand your ground
Instead of making the right of wrong
You play your blame game when crisis strikes
You build hate amongst our race
Into our fucking land behind our face
Stabbing the back of your brothers
Your people, your selfish survival, your game of lies
Conning the innocent on racial belief
And give rise to them new born enemies
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Hollow hopes is your insight
You give us all the shit till your votes are wide
Hypocrisy is your political right
Fucking scum motherfuckers an infection inside
Your strategies for ministerial berths
Dishonest and deceptive, your allies so sore
You call our land as the mother of all
And treat her like a whore
Fight for the right, for our rights
For our lives, you cannot run the nation so, fuck you
You've got the nerves to exploit all the ones
Who rely on your bullshit plays
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
Who gives a fuck
We give a fuck
We give a fuck
We give a fuck
We give a fuck
We give a fuck
We give a fuck
Taking back my time I lost what I had to realize
Feeling this emptiness because of somebody else
Stop - Lies, cries, deceit
You are the ones who would see us burn and die
Steal all our souls and fuck sell it at a cheap price
Fake sign of lotus, the hand of corruption
Stop - Lies, cries, deceit
Can’t stop this raging aggression
Can’t stop this strong revolution
When you had to enact, you didn’t wait for me
Can’t stop this fire for freedom
It’s time to burn down your kingdom
What a lie had I lived, now it’s time for change
What we do, is what we believe in
What we do, is what we believe in
What we do, is what we believe in
What we do, is what we believe in
One song bring all alliance
One thought rage broken silence
We’re the force that is one, we fight no blame
All cries no justification
All fists we fight for retention
This is it, this is now and we fight no blame
What we do, is what we believe in
What we do, is what we believe in
What we do, is what we believe in
What we do, is what we believe in
I believe in fighting back for my name
Strong, uphold rage, in spite of being hollow
And I’m scarred, scarred, scarred
What had made you believe she was the one?
Now that she’s gone, friends you’ve got none
She spat on you like its shit to forget
And now it’s your time to make her regret
Lies, future, secrets, fuck
Don’t rely on her ‘cause she’s a fucking lie
Bury your past in the bleeding wounds
Of your last tear drop and walk ahead
Time has arrived to make her realize
Should’ve laid her instead of loved
Lies, future, secrets, hate
Lies, future, secrets, fuck
Lying down in darkness, broken heart weakness
Still you cry in sorrow, be all alone tomorrow
There she is now, fucking someone else
While you lay on your bed, dead, drunk loser
Worthless tears in your eyes
Fortune teller tell me secrets of her lies
And her motherfucking pride
Dark obsession, wrath deception
It’s her style, she’d let you die
Your schizophrenic depression
For the one who fucked your ass
With a smile on her face
And a little bit of sickness in her head
Lies, future, secrets, hate
Hope, hope lies denied, denied in their lies
Bifurcation of thoughts, no value for life
Destruction of good, corruption arise
Culprits play fool, innocent pay the price
Destroy all the signs
of National Deluge
Destroy all the signs
of National Disaster
Belief is used as a tool to manipulate the mass
Why do they kill in the name of god
Infants and young are murdered and raped
Hatred inside and still we see smiles.
Destroy all the signs
of National Deluge
Destroy all the signs
Burning down, thoughts in mind decay
Hibernate an evolving phase
Dread, life, drug, freedom, patience, exhale, burden, survive
Stabilize the weakness
Exterminate what breeds a lie and grow
Violate, broken laws imposed
To worship, my choice your belief
Dread, life, drug, freedom, patience, exhale, burden, survive
Sacrifice for future survival to realize
Suffering to multiply, a stringent growth empowered on you
All of my memories, looking back at my
Future revival cry
Denying the welcoming
Hyperpsychotic emptiness inside
Hate life, with the time moving backwards
Flickers, lies unstable
Believe thy fucking brains fear induced
Liar, I'm not afraid of you.
Burning down, thoughts in mind decay
Hibernate an evolving phase
Dread, life, drug, freedom, patience, exhale, burden, survive
Sacrifice for future survival to realize
Suffering to multiply, a stringent growth empowered on you
Take the rise, as a life, served the year, been deprived
Machine State Hibernation
All rage withheld one day will dominate
Hatred in my eyes, you can't stop that feeling
Virtue of the lies, left a stigma in me
Trauma in my mind, blood black dead inside me
Lying all alone, you don't know where I belong
Tears, cry, breathe and endure
Scream, pain, grieve and move on.
I've been wandering, there's no destination
Lied to live a lie, immature delusion
Run through droughts of time, heart demands discretion
Fighting hollow spheres, I've been dying to be strong
Tears, cry, breathe and endure
Scream, pain, grieve and move on
Night, darkest in me
You don't believe this side of me
All of my pain, living in isolated state
You can't hear me, feel my screams
Hate the feeling - am I black or white?
Hate the truth - why fear to die
Racist fools - you fall in the face
You're fucking wrong your stare ain't so daze
Why do you?
Discriminate
Why do you?
HATE
Why don't you spread unity amongst
Why do cry, blood spills on the ground
We are all humans, that's our only race
Then why the fuck do you discriminate
Why do you?
Discriminate
Why do you?

We'll run the city, run the city while we're still young
Cut the cord that opens up my jaw
As all these words run,
I'm out of breath from kicking cans at God
And I said, Jesus Christ
The nights are much too long
I'm tired of throwing bodies at the moon
I'm sure I will be caught soon
And then I had this dream I was fast as lightning
Flying in a suitcase over these islands
But this time I did, I'm not waking up
Get it right this time
I'm throwing lassos at the sky
Catching moments as big as my eyes
Intoxicating like, like we're on a gold mine
Get it right this time
I'm throwing islands at your eyes
That's right you got me practicing lies
Intoxicating like, like we're on a gold mine
Cut the curtains fall around my head
Yesterday is dead, I can't erase the stupid things I did
And I said Jesus Christ
The nights are much too strong
I'm tired of throwing bottles at the sun
I'm sure we won't be here long
And then I had this dream I was fast as lightning
Flying in a suitcase over these islands
But this time I did, I'm not waking up
Get it right this time
I'm throwing lassos at the sky
Catching moments as big as my eyes
Intoxicating like, like we're on a gold mine
Get it right this time
I'm throwing islands at your eyes
That's right you got me practicing lies
Intoxicating like
And maybe I've been thinking about the molecules I've been breathing
And now my skin's so soft it breaks with every breath I'm taking
And now my blood is full of airplanes and they're flying me away
From all these God damn dirt bag neighborhoods
Saying don't look back, don't you dare look back at me
Alright this time
We're throwing models at the sun
Won't be here for too long
Intoxicating like, intoxicating
Get it right this time
I'm throwing islands at your eyes
That's right you got me practicing lies
Intoxicating like, like, like
Get it right this time
I'm throwing lassos at the sky
Catching moments as big as my eyes
Intoxicating like
Don't look back, don't you dare look back now
Get it right this time
I'm throwing islands at your eyes
That's right you got me practicing lies
