Walking Wounded - Pariah

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
