I am a refugee, I am a refugee I can see you but you don't see me I am a refugee, sometimes I'm just like a mirror A reflection of what you ignore
The look on my face is just the disgrace Of the child you locked outside your door I am flesh and bone born of mother From a home that ceases to be
I have walked these roads to long my friend To return to my family, I was born in a different time In a world not run by machines I am part of a time that is no more 'Cept in my heart and in my dreams
Some men they call me unlucky Some men they just call me weak They look on with shame as if I am to blame For something they dare not to speak
Most every place that I go I am greeted with suspicious eyes As if a man on his knees has some disease That mankind must despise
I am flesh and bone born of mother From a home that ceases to be I have walked these roads to long my friend To return to my family
I was born in a different time In a world not run by machines I am part of a time that is no more 'Cept in my heart and in my dreams
I am a refugee, I am a refugee Like a ghosts I've returned I was caught up and burned In the machine that created me
I am flesh and bone born of mother From a home that ceases to be I have walked these roads to long my friend To return to my family
I was born in a different time In a world not run by machines I am part of a time that is no more 'Cept in my heart and in my dreams
I was born in a different time In a world not run by machines I am part of a time that is no more 'Cept in my heart and in my dreams
