The Wall That Stands Between歌词完整版
作词 : Leon Rosselson

On one side there is power, and the luxury to choose,
On the other side..are empty hands and nothing left to lose,
And the wall that stands between them rises high another day,
And the razor wire is razor-sharp to slice your heart away,
And don't you know? you won't be welcomed.
They've got ways, they've got words, to keep you down.
He said, "we had to leave, I don't know why,
we had no food,
We worked for days and days,
We chewed on leaves,
We drank from muddy pools,
My mom got taken sick, I watched her die,
The desert burned my throat, I ached with fever,
I think my uncle, carried me across, I don't know how, we got passed the men with guns,
And that great barbed-wire fence has stretched forever,
you see these hands, the scars are still blood-red,
And now, they want to send us back", he said.
On one side there is hunger, in a wasteland of despair,
On the other side...is plenty, and plenty still to spare,
And the wall that stands between them rises high another day,
And the razor wire is razor-sharp to slice your heart away,
And don't you know? you won't be welcomed.
They've got ways, they've got words, to keep you down
She said, "the soldiers came, we had to flee,
We ran so fast,
We left the dog behind,
The dog was howling, howling on his chain,
I wanted to go back,
And set him free,
My dad grabbed at my hand and yelled out:'No!'
I heard a 'Bang', and then the howling stopped,
Still in my dreams, I hear my poor dog howling,
And when I wake, I'd cry, because I know:
I have no home, and now my dog is dead.
And all because we ran away", she said.
On one side there is terror, and the charred flesh of war,
On the other side...are arms-deals, and profits said to soar,
And the wall that stands between them rises high another day,
And the razor wire is razor-sharp to slice your heart away,
And don't you know? you won't be welcomed.
They've got ways, they've got words, to keep you down
He said, "they took me, beat me black and blue,
They asked me questions, made my body scream,
When I come here, I say the things they did,
They lock me up, they say, 'it isn't true',
My head is full of ghosts, sometimes I weep,
I don't know where my family has been taken,
This place is bad, a prison camp with guards,
At night, I walk the room, I cannot sleep,
I ask asylum, they locked me up instead,
I think...Monday, I'll kill myself", he said.
On one side there is torture, where silence drowns the screams,
On the other side...is charity, then a market selling dreams,
And the wall that stands between them rises high another day,
And the razor wire is razor-sharp to slice your heart away,
And don't you know? you won't be welcomed.
They've got ways, they've got words, to keep you down
She said, "they call us 'black swine, gypsy scum',
The gangs with knives, and baseball-bats in chains,
I've got this wound still here upon my head,
We call the cops, they laugh, they never come,
They fire-bombed our house, my brother died,
Now we live here, in this damp dingy room,
And the English gangs, they call us gypsy-scum,
They come with knives, I'm scared to go outside,
I just want peace, a safe place to lay my head,
Is that so-very-much to ask?", she said.
On one side there is power, and the luxury to choose,
On the other side..are empty hands and nothing left to lose,
And the wall that stands between them rises high another day,
And the razor wire is razor-sharp to slice your heart away,
And don't you know? you won't be welcomed.
They've got ways, they've got words, to keep you down.
And don't you know? that this is England,
Where they've got laws, ways, words, to keep you down.
