    The song speaks to those who hurt others and those who are hurt by others. Whether in personal lives or the lives of peoples and nations, those who cause pain and suffering will be met by the gong of justice!

    Story Behind the Song
    From Brigitte Hallert:

    "Going back to Buddhist philosophy regarding the karma that we create with our daily choices. During the era of this song, I was dealt a lot of suffering in my family life and having the outlet of song writing helped me to bring my sanity to a point where I could deal with the pain."

    Lyrics
    When the gong rings you’ll have to answer,
    When the gong rings you won’t get out.
    When the world sings you will be silent,
    And you’ll wish you could get out.

    But the bells will call for justice,
    For the pain that you have caused.
    And the bells they’ll have no mercy,
    They’ll be loud, loud, loud,
    Upon your soul.

    INSTRUMENTAL

    When the gong rings you’ll have to answer,
    When the gong rings you won’t get out.
    When the world sings you will be silent,
    And you’ll wish you could get out.

    And you’ll be asking for forgiveness,
    Pleading for just one more day.
    But you failed your conscience,
    Now it’s time, time, time for you to pay.
