lyrics

on the wilder shores of love
cutting bullets from our flesh
from way below to high above
from the east side to the west

I jumped the night train to Trieste
tried to find my friends out in the west
I heard they were living near Cologne
but the border took my phone

they bombed us in the night
until the break of day
rounded us up like vultures prey
and in the morning light
before my very eyes
took my wife and baby away

I used to be a businessman
a thousand jobs at my command
but now you call me refugee
my broken life is all you see

I look for her on every street
and I ask everyone I meet
I wear her absence like a uniform
it spurs me on
I don’t even need to sleep

they bombed us in the night
until the break of day
rounded us up like vultures prey
and in the morning light
before my very eyes
took my wife and baby away

I don’t understand your war
this is no better than before
I don’t believe a word you say
and God will make you pay

On the wilder shores of love
from the east side to the west
