Refugees Go West

from Millennia Madness by Citizen Fish

REFUGEES GO WEST

It's all-channel mindset in Western World style
Between TV and work we all roam
While mad politicians cause wars and divisions
In places a long way from home

Political power-crazy generals on hills
Are bombing the people they know
And making demands claiming rights over land
Til their ain't nowhere safe left to go

"This is religion and so is this too
And one of them therefore is wrong."
It is the same old excuse to support fascist views
"You may live here, but you don't belong"

Family gathered to see what was left
On the borders of what was once home
The country next door said, "You're welcome I'm sure
But the law says you'll soon have to go."

The phrase "ethnic cleansing" is dressing in words
Racist oppression and death
When the last refugees have come out of the east
How far will they have to go west?

The refugee's story gets left in the cold
As we turn off the TV and go
Easy to ignore til it's at your front door
Then it is time to "stay" and not "go"
