Please...

Please don't be scared of me
Please don't be afraid
There's no need for this cage you've put me in
There's no need for the chains you've laid.

Please don't be frightened of me
Please, don't run
I am not going to hurt you
So please put down the loaded gun.

Please don't shoot me
Please, just let me go
If only i could understand you,
Then i might know why you hate me so...

Please just bury my body
Please leave my fur alone
Just leave my corpse in peace
Don't tear off my skin from bone.

Please don't kill my family
Please, don't cause them any more pain
I beg, don't make them into a product,
For your selfish, greedy gain.

Please, just stop the slaughter
Please stop your hunting game
Because a world without the tiger,
Just wouldn't be the same...
