Sanctuary |
| Is this the sanctuary |
| We talked of in the night? |
| Is this the sanctuary? |
| I must try to do what’s right |
| A cold light shines from the watchtower window |
| Chill wind scratches out my face |
| Blown between the bars |
| That hold this place |
| Is this the sanctuary |
| We talked of in the night? |
| Is this the sanctuary? |
| I must try to do what’s right |
| Twilight howl, the searchlight owl |
| Wire fingers grip the air |
| Freedom only comes |
| To those who dare |
| Is this the sanctuary |
| We talked of in the night? |
| Is this the sanctuary? |
| Where all our hopes have turned to stone |
| Nothing left to lose but life itself |
| Nowhere left to go but through the wire |
| Cross the compound’s barren waste with dread |
| The sun shall rise upon the free and dead |
| The free and the dead, ooh |
| Run (run) |
| Hide (hide) |
| But you can’t flee what lies inside |
| Sleep (sleep) |
| Dream (dream) |
| But only to the sound of screams |
| Fear (fear) |
| Doubt (doubt) |
| That save for death, there’s no way out |
| Seek (seek) |
| Find (find) |
| The free and promised land that lies nearby |
| And… and… and…and… |
| And though I wear the yellow badge of hate |
| I walk a free man through the opening gate |
| Still ghostly figures line the wire in a daze |
| No need for flowers here, there are no graves |
| And though I wear the yellow badge of hate |
| I walk a free man past the padlocked gates |
| I pause to look the searchlight in the eye |
| To ask it shed it’s light upon the reason why? |
