Immigrant
I see these courtyards of marble stone Pillars draped in vines, roots overgrown I try remember but my memories weak This city's home to liars, liars and thieves, dirty thieves
It's hard to tell the rotten from the ripe When bittersweet blasphemy sours every bite The taste of freedom don't satisfy Nothing satisfies Nothing satisfies
This place these people, I've been here too long Picked up the local speak and I lost my mother tongue Haven't sung in so long
It's hard to tell wrong from right When bittersweet blasphemy sours every bite The taste of freedom don't satisfy Nothing satisfies Nothing satisfies
I still recall the day you said to me You'll be home again someday you'll see When the war's blood seeps beneath your door I will stand beside you
And when the grey river banks spring flood Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com In the days when the sky crackles black above Still your shaken soul, till the sun runs cold I will stand beside you, I will stand beside you
Lord I'm tired I'm empty And as I wait here patiently I see them break, see them cry See them begging for a sign Oh I see it all come to nothing
You and me it feels like we are worlds away With every year that passes I decay You and me it feels like we are worlds away And with or without you it seems I'll stay lonely
You and me seem to be Split between the stars Distant seas, aimlessly Drifting in the dark
You and me it feels like we are worlds away With every year that passes I decay You and me it feels like we are worlds away And with or without you it seems I'll stay lonely
