Silence falls in no man's land

To echo on uncertain steps

Sharp of eye and quick of hand

Advancing forward to regrets

Underfoot the bombs and mortars

Sleep awaiting coded warnings

From the top the barking orders

Light the sky on these dark mornings.

[Chorus]

Seek asylum from the terror

Reaching out for what it's worth

Shelter from the raging anger

Raining down on bitter earth.

Sympathy for all who's hurting

Getting lost between the lines

It's the stuff that keeps returning

Laughing loud in victor's lies

Up above on wind's declaring

Soon the cold will whistle through

Push aside the warm sierras

Fill the sails that carry you.

[Chorus]

Seek asylum from the terror

Reaching out for what it's worth

Shelter from the raging anger

Raining down on bitter earth.

Many miles are put between the

What once was and what will be

Sleepwalk nightmare to sweet dream

Each step consigned to history

Every whisper sings resistance

All emotions hide inside

Refugee looks to the distance

Out there somewhere lies his pride.

[Chorus]

Seek asylum from the terror

Reaching out for what it's worth

Shelter from the raging anger

Raining down on bitter earth.
