Borderlines

I've been graced by this holy place, oh
In my hometown, that sweet green sound
On the borderlines, life is so divine
Is it a given?

But I've seen pain that won't go away, oh
In war-torn lands, don't understand
Oh a lucky life, how the hell's it mine?
Am I forgiven?

This small world has opened up my eyes
So much life found on the borderlines
Cross the seas and open up your mind
Forgive me please for all the love you find

I've seen rainfall and sun make rainbows
From my window, I let it go
All the borderlines, they were once as mine
And in the middle

But I've seen rage, oh and loveless games, oh
And battle grounds, in my own house
All the borderlines, now they're great divides
I'm only little

This small world has opened up my eyes
So much loss found on the borderlines
Cross my heart, baby I hope I'm right
When I touch down back on the other side

Forgotten lands sink into the sands of history
Like that old stone town where the dragon drowned in mystery
And all these lives on the borderlines, well they're history
But the legend dies if we let it by, so come sing with me

This small world has opened up my eyes
So much love found on the borderlines
Cross the seas and open up your mind
Forgive me please for everything you find

This small world has opened up my eyes
So much life found on the borderlines
Cross my heart, baby I hope I'm right
When I touch down back on the other side
