It's in my mind again
Troubled by the images I've seen
Eighteen months ago
They left their homes in the rubble of my Mayadeen
God only knows the pain you feel to leave your country looking for a home
But they'd rather die once in the sea than dying everyday a little more
They came to Lebanon
With another million desperate souls
Sing with Ibrahim and all the families at the Valley of Bekaa
God only knows the pain he'd feel to leave behind Faiza and Adeel
But they said, "Better to die once in the sea
Than dying every day you stay here with me."
Myela, Myela, Myela, Myela
Her name is Sonia J
Twenty-one years old, she's Sudanese
She's four months pregnant now
Alone in Lampedusa, Sicily
God only knows how she survived so many other families have died
She says, "Please help me find a way to stay and give a future to the child I, carry inside"
Myela, Myela, Myela, Myela
Oh, help me in my hopelessness and free me from the cage of civilization
Save me from my selfishness and my indifference to my neighbor
I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor
I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor
I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor
I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor
(I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
(I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
(I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
(I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor
I am your neighbor, you are my neighbor
Myela, Myela
(Myela)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
(Myela)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
(Myela)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
(Myela)
Freedom from the cage of this supposed civilization
Myela, Myela
Come and get me
Come and get me
Come and get me
Come and get me
If you can
If you can
Come and get me
Come and get me
Come and get me
Come and get me
If you can
If you can
