On on, ever onward There's no end to this ***** dusty road Behind, in the distance but still to close The machinery of war rumbles on My once beautiful home now a dust filled ruin My children crying, hungry but what can I do? I don't know how to survive, I've had no training But I have to for my family What is the future, what does it hold for us? Perhaps a corner of a ragged tent
A thousand miles from home Yes I could have joined my comrades But I don't know how to fire a gun I'm a doctor, supposed to save lives Not take them All we have left is what we carry on our backs I don't know what to do, I just don't know How can I explain to thd children that there is no food? How do you try to tell a five year old the reason The reason why we walk down this endless ***** road And yet still the flashes fill the sky And more young men will die In this so called fight for liberty Yes we are now modern refugees Because of a struggle that isn't mine This then is Syria
