lyrics

'make the world safe for democracy'
to justify a war against humanity.
it could only take a day, a single signed file,
nobody is safe, we could all be told to go.
when everyone is dead and then you've lost it all
you become a refugee and it takes a toll
they will try to exhaust your state of mind
'cause they'lle have no more use for your kind

your leaders can't protect you, but they can get you killed.
when you cross those waters, they will let you die !
no other way but the freezing dark sea
there are no more solutions , why me ? (dan 4x)

you've been running and hiding for years now,
hunted like dogs by the fascist police.
living like a ghost from day to day,
shelter and clothes they take it away
our solidarity can bring so much joy,
children are happy with a shiny plastic toy,
how come its not just common sense,
knowing about your comrades behind the fence

your leaders can't protect you, but they can get you killed.
when you cross those waters, they will let you die !
no other way but the freezing dark sea
there are no more solutions , why me ?
