Over the Border

Born into hate and polished by violence
You take hold of your fate, you excavate silence
You say, "I'm just happy to survive
This land is our land"

All of your needs and all of your hunger
Your permanent pain now buried in thunder
You said, "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
'Cause 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

(I see you on the other side
Over the border
See you on the other side)

(I see you on the other side
Over the border
See you on the other side)

(Over the)
