On the Run
The shouts and the threats and the scars and the pain
Fly along with the girl stowed away on a plane
Her mouth is an oyster, hiding sorrow and shame
Far beyond all well-known faces, long-gone times and trusted places
She hopes she will find a way to melt her frozen tears
I'm leaving home
Bye, home sweet home
Home sweet home
The sea and the sand and the sun in the sky
Run along with the boy who's been taught not to cry
His mouth is an oyster, hiding sorrow and fear
Far beyond all nameless faces, fearful times and hostile places
Soft and gentle hands will wipe our liberated tears
Ma, where have you gone?
I wanna go home
Home sweet home
