Lyric Warchild

I need city lights defense and weaponry
No way of knowing my life expectancy
I learn resistance like I learn to see
A living witness
A lonely refugee
I m a war child
I m a war baby and that s the difference between you and me
I m a war child
My occupation is being occupied
I stop at the corner to be identified
Across the border they pretend victory
I m playing in the rubble and dream of destiny
You weren t discovered by Khmer Rouge
We hear of "the troubles" on the nightly news
PLO lovers courting after the curfew
Your father and brother have the West Bank blues
