Faraway Lands

You walk your way in the intense heat
The earth is trembling, but you cannot flee
The place you used to call your home
Is now being consumed down to the bone

Perish and suffer at their hands
Far away from your native lands
The ground can split and the skies can tear
But they will never welcome you here

You walk your way in the intense heat
Bombs bursting across the street
You must escape, but where would you go?
You’ll only be sent back to this death row

With every name under the Sun
They call you ’cause you had to run
In their eyes, you’re the guilty one
Staring down the barrel of their gun
