leon rosselson – the wall that stands between كلمات اغاني
on one side there is power
and the luxury to choose
on the other side is empty hands
and nothing left to lose
and the wall that stands between
them rises higher by the day
and the razor wire is razor sharp
to slice your heart away
and don’t you know?
you won’t be welcome
they’ve got ways they’ve got words
to keep you down
he said we had to leave i don’t know why
we had no food we walked for days and days
we chewed on leaves we drank from muddy pools
my mum got taken sick i watched her die
the desert burned my throat i ached with fever
i think my uncle carried me across
i don’t know how we got past the men with guns
and that great barbed wire that stretched forever
you see these hands? the scars are still blood red
and now they want to send us back he said
on one side there is hunger
in a wasteland of despair
on the other side is plenty
and plenty still to spare
and the wall that stands between
them rises higher by the day
and the razor wire is razor sharp
to slice your heart away
and don’t you know?
you won’t be welcome
they’ve got ways they’ve got words
to keep you down
she said the soldiers came we had to flee
we ran so fast we left the dog behind
the dog was howling howling on his chain
i wanted to go back and set him free
my dad grabbed at my hand and yelled out ‘no!’
heard a bang and then the howling stopped
still in my dreams i hear my poor dog howling
and when i wake i cry because i know
i have no home and now my dog is dead
and all because we left she said
on one side there is terror
and the charred flesh of war
on the other side there’s arms deals
and profits set to soar
and the wall that stands between
them rises higher by the day
and the razor wire is razor sharp
to slice your heart away
and don’t you know?
you won’t be welcome
they’ve got ways they’ve got words
to keep you down
he said they took me
beat me black and blue
they asked me questions
made my buddy scream
when i come hear say the things they did
they lock me up
they say it isn’t true
my head is full of ghosts
sometimes i weep
i don’t know where my family has been taken
this place is bad
a prison camp with guards
at night i walk the room i can not sleep
i ask asylum they lock me up instead
i think one day i’ll k!ll myself he said
on one side there is torture
where silence drowns the screams
on the other side is charity
and a market selling dreams
and the wall that stands between
them rises higher by the day
and the razor wire is razor sharp
to slice your heart away
and don’t you know?
you won’t be welcome
they’ve got ways they’ve got words
to keep you down
she said they call us black swine, gypsies, scum
the gangs with knives, and baseball bats, and chains
i’ve got this wound still here upon my head
we call the cops they laugh they never come
they firebombed our house my brother died
now we live here in this d_mn dingy room
and the english gangs they call us gypsy scum
they come with knives i’m afraid to go outside
i just want peace a safe place to lay my head
is that so much to ask for? she said
on one side there is power
and the luxury to choose
on the other side is empty hands
and nothing left to lose
and the wall that stands between
them rises higher by the day
and the razor wire is razor sharp
to slice your heart away
and don’t you know?
that this is england
that they’ve got laws, ways, words
to keep you down
