Place

Fighting in a place we don't belong
No ones knows for how long
So much fear in their eyes
Car bomb explodes, hear the cries
Blood and bodies on the ground
Help from everyone in town
Sirens whaling down the streets
Climbing over pieces of concrete
Standing guard at a place of death
Knowing that no one is safe
Cross around my neck, keeping faith
Arabic language I can't understand
So much sadness in this land
Shoes and blood on the ground
An eerie silence all around
Why are we here in this place
You can see the anger on their faces
We are in a place we don't belong
In the distance prayer and song
Its time to leave this place
