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
