Ghosts

BY THE GRACE OF HUNGRY ROADS AND SEAS
THERE'S A SECOND CHANCE I LIVE TO SEE
MY HOME, MY FAMILY, ALL MY FUTURES AND MY HISTORY
BURIED IN DUST AND BULLET SHELLS
AND I'M LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND

I'M LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND
I'M LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND
AND I PRAY THAT I CAN FIND
A REFUGE

NOW I'M A PRISONER ON FOREIGN STREETS
HANDS TIED TO A SYSTEM I CAN'T LEAVE
PARADED AS THE ENEMY, TO BE HATED BY SOCIETY
SO FAR AWAY, SO MUCH THE SAME
I THOUGHT I WAS LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND
LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND

IF YOU ONLY KNEW MY STORY
IF YOU ONLY KNEW MY NAME
I DIDN'T COME WITH NEEDS BEFORE ME
I CAME TO START AGAIN
I'M NOT A REFUGEE
I'M YOU, IF YOU WERE ME

I'M LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND
I'M LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND
I'M LEAVING IT ALL BEHIND
