Time for the last goodbyes
To the place you once called home
Running from the genocide

People together, yet a people alone

Kicked from one camp to another

Hellholes riddled with disease
Not enough food to share amongst your brothers
So many dying on their knees

Refugees

Another mile until you reach your goal

You walk in circles lost without a home
Another border another danger zone
Walking wounded, on your own

Refugees

Another mile until you reach your goal

You walk in circles, far from home
Fire and bullets fly from every side
And the world watches

Only a camera away

Forced into evacuation

To escape these killing fields
Better to die than face repatriation
At the hands of the latest tyranny


Another mile until you reach your goal
You walk in circles lost without a home

Another border another danger zone
Walking wounded, on your own
Refugees
