Refugees
(Music: Jens Lück, Lyrics: Jens Lück/Isgaard)
Can you hear them?
Can you see them?
Can you hear them cry?
Once they´ve hit the road to leave the bale
Didn´t look back to their ailing shack
They have passed through heat and hail and gale
Forward always forward!
They´re searching for asylum day to day
Pull their insides out
Can you see their doubts?
They´re longing for shelter on their way
For a secure place to stay
Can you hear them cry?
Born into the badlands - untended place
To meet their fate on a one-way-strait
Asking for a better life as an act of grace
Their world, your world, my world, one world
Can you see them cry?
Can you hear them cry?
