Under the blood sky armies are returning
The country I leave behind me is burning

I left my family at the border crossing
I don't when I'll be returning

Chorus:
I gotta run
I gotta hide
I gotta make it to the other side
there's no place for the misplaced,
no home for the homeless
and I'm tired of running
yes I'm tired of running
have mercy won't you take me home
take me home

I got a job
then I got a another
I've swept your streets I've walked your gutter

no minimum wage, no insurance
I'm the one you never see
the one you never notice

CHORUS (*2)
