Intro
Born into hate
And policed by violence
You take hold of your fate
You excavate silence
You say "I'm just happy to survive"
"This law and disorder"
All of your needs
And all of your hunger
Your permanent pain
Now buried in thunder
You say "See you on the other side"
"Come over the border"
It's close to the bone
Caresses abrasion
Blessings and blame
Consent and persuasion
And I said "I love you, but don't cry"
"Cos that ain't an order"
Living alone
I'm close to your heartbeat
And you're feeling at home
When you stand on your own feet
And I saw the morning in your smile
Come over the border
