Africa

No one beyond the capital

They heard them into trucks like animals

With no food for a hundred miles or more

So take them back to familiar shores

There's no shame in wanting what others call a home

And one day you will wake up and know you're not alone

And know you're not alone

Oh poor the shadow I feed

(Without adventure nothing gained)

It rings out throw the camps like a protest song

(Will I ever see you again)

Walking under the dark red sky

(Without adventure nothing gained)

Wash away the last of the light

(I'll never see you again)

There's no shame in wanting what others call a home

And one day you will wake up and know you're not alone

And know you're not alone

Not alone

And don't start to run

They're not afraid to put you down

So don't run

So don't run

'cause they're not afraid

Not afraid to put you down

So don't run

They're not afraid

To put you down

They're not afraid

To put you down

They're not afraid

To put you down

They're not afraid

To put you down
