lyrics

Fear was in the air
Brothers and sisters took care
Kept their heads down
trying to disappear

Everyone was petrified
in their houses they cried
no one knew what side
these bombs were falling from

these human minds
won’t fight here no more
they know do deep down
its not their war

just want to live
feeling safe
with their families
far from all the pain
all the pain

Fear had won the day
got to leave all our homes
to start a new life
into the unknown

We were all so afraid
mums and grandmas they prayed
for a new day
we can all sleep in peace

chorus
I
Nobody wanted to be seen
talking to this man
The villagers heard whispers
his kind were now the damned

TV and their papers made
into targets again
these neighbours and work mates
No longer welcome here

these human minds
won’t fight here no more
they know do deep down
its not their war

just want to live
feeling safe
with their children
far from all the pain
all the pain
