lyrics

Tell me mother about this this place?
What that writing on the wall
Will they shoot me into space
Will you catch me
When I fall down gasping

It’s another lifetime
Another trip around the sun
blacked out neighborhood in twilight
Burning fences to keep warm

Once I was a tightrope walker
At the mercy of a gust
Stepping high above the mountains
Above the dogs we couldn’t trust

We will take flight when they find us
No, they never will again
I know they only check the corners
Now our world will have no end

Where’d you come from I don’t know
Do you have papers I don’t know
How old are you I couldn’t tell
What’s your name and can you spell it
Who’s your maker I don’t know
Are you certain I don’t know
You will have to go back home
Where’d you come from I don’t know

I would not have put you on the boat If I thought
The water posed more of a threat to us
Than staying on the land

Waters rise,
If we only had more time to buy
But we didn’t read the signs
You’re a refugee now
You’re a refugee too

Is that your child, yes it is
