[Verse 1]
I would like to know
How you cage a bird aflight
Feathers bright
To show your might

[Verse 2]
Are you such a stone
Smile greasy, you pick my bones
Crawl inside
Have you no life?

[Chorus]
Hard times on the refugee
Keep a sidesteppin' over me
Not sure, but you think you might
Can you see when there is no light?

[Verse 3]
Tell me once again
That you'd like to be my friend
While we run
A race of one

[Verse 4]
Do you feel the same
My head hung high in shame
You install
A trophy wall
[Chorus]
Hard times on the refugee
Keep a sidesteppin' over me
Not sure, but you think you might
Can you see when there is no light?

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]
Please me, satisfy
One request: choose to live
And I won't die
