a thousand miles of dust and stone
you’ve been walking alone
to a place that is save
a thousand doors of “yes and no’s”
they make you follow their rules
and they say
war is save
save enough for you
a thousand eyes of fear and blame
stare at you
leave you ashamed
for things you didn’t do
it wasn’t you
a thousand struggles
up and down
you face the fact you got to go back
you got no home
imagine a world that would be
without any fence and border
imagine a world that would be
truly based on human rights
