We put up the borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
We put up the borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
We put up the borders
To keep out the needy man
Borders
To protect the greedy man
Borders
To keep all the living men dead
Dead, dead
Putting up the borders
That separate us from our fellow human beings
Emphasising difference instead of
Seeing the reflections that connect us
Connections that perfect us
Similarities of factors that affect us
In our everyday existence in this planet that we all live upon
Six billion expressions of the same essential one
The same essential force
That fundamental source of energy
That manifests itself in oh so many different forms
And it's all alright and all okay and that's just fine you know
But me I know that sometimes you have to draw the lines
Just to make sense of what you see
Of this reality
But understand the lines you draw only exist within your mind
It's the illusion of separation
Whoa
Separating nation from nation
The justification for social segregation
So deep in our delusions like a world of mental patients
Now it's time to tear down the asylum walls and let the patients out
It's time to let the refugees inside and share the wealth about
It's time that we all understand
We are just one land
Just one people people it's time to make a stand and say
No
I won't go
I won't go quietly no no no
I won't go quietly no no no
And if I do
Well you should know
You can't trap my soul
Trap my soul
Behind these borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
We put up the borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
We put up the borders
Borders
To keep out the needy man
Borders
To protect the greedy man
Borders
To keep all the living men dead
Dead, dead
Putting up the borders
That elevate the status of those with resources
Never wonder from what plundering the source is
Misappropriated
Excavated from the living earth
Minerals like outlaw criminals flee from their place of birth
And make the journey northwards
Destined for our waters
Where they're welcomed in with open
Arms by the governments and corporates
Container ships slip over border points with ease
When they're carrying the commodities that service our greed
But meanwhile deep down in the belly of the ship
A secret human cargo waits
No food or water's passed a man's lips for the last eleven days
Kept alive by memories of families they've left behind
They ride the waves towards the promise of a better life
Some flee from tyranny
Some simply seek a way to lift themselves up
From the poverty that stalks them every day
Some run away from never ending civil war
For every single one of them this is their last resort and they say
No
I won't go
I won't go quietly no no no
I won't go quietly no no no
And if I do
Well you should know
You can't trap my soul
Trap my soul
Behind these borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
We put up the borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
We put up the borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
We put up the borders that board us into our boxes
Oh can't you see now how the locksmith lies
Stoking up the national pride
While they're keeping all the wealth inside
