Don't take out your hate on me
Or try to cleanse my family
I'm just another refugee
I won't look back now
Smoke is rising from our house
You've cut us off and chased us out
There's nothing left to cry about
I won't look back now
How many lives will it take us to be sure
To recognise it's killing time
Don't make your mistakes on me
Your threats, your lies, your perjury
'Cos I wanna be what I wanna be
I won't look back now
Children trapped beneath the stars
In skeletons of broken cars
And noone even stops to ask
I won't look back now
How many lives will it take us to be sure
To recognise it's killing time
