Lyrics
You've come so far,
From war-zones and dictatorships,
In search of a better life
You've come so far,
From war-zones and dictatorships,
Travelling on the blade of a knife
To my friend I am sorry,
Sorry for your loss,
I write from my Safe European home,
Behind the boarders you try to cross,
I would send you a message of solidarity,
But I know that statement comes far too easily
You've come so far,
From war-zones and dictatorships,
In search of a better life
I've not spent years waiting for the day,
When I can find a resting place that doesn't rock and sway,
Down at the passport office I handed in my form,
And now I can cross any line because of the place where I was born
You've come so far,
From war-zones and dictatorships,
In search of a better life
On the beaches of Lesbos,
The jungle in Calais,
You've been travelling for forever and a day,
The smugglers approach you with dollar in their eyes,
The government make you queue day after day their promises are lies
You've come so far,
You're just a person your status is not an identity,
So what I'm sending is an apology
You've come so far,
From war-zones and dictatorships,
In search of a better life
You've come so far,
From War-zones and Dictatorships,
Travelling on the blade of a knife
