I need city lights |
|
Defence and weaponry |
|
No way of knowing |
|
My life expectancy |
|
I learn resistance |
|
Like I learn to see |
|
A living witness |
|
A lonely refugee I'm a war child |
|
I'm a war baby |
|
And that's the difference |
|
Between you and me |
|
I'm a war child |
|
My occupation |
|
Is being occupied |
|
I stop at the corner |
|
To be identified |
|
Across the border |
|
They pretend victory |
|
I'm playing in the rubble |
|
And dream a destiny |
|
I'm a war child |
|
I'm a war baby |
|
And that's the difference |
|
Between you and me |
|
I'm a war child |
|
You weren't discovered by Khmer Rouge |
|
We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news |
|
PLO lovers courting after the curfew |
|
Your father and brother have the West Bank blues |
