Lyrics:

As I trudge through
The wasted ravaged land
Our dreams they turn to sand
We need a global thought reversal
Everything is universal
In a swarm of flies.
Caught by a web of lies.
Let me be free.

Step across the border of this land
A line drawn in the sand
Looking for a patch of green
Feeling like a refugee Like a swarm of flies
Then you will realize You will be free


ye, im feeling lost globally
feed me to the ocean, spread the word that im nobody
nobly, id face the music but they're groping me 
grasping at my neck I can't defend myself vocally
not home but free, in this space we call the ether, 
grounded like a hog, the track is stuck in a repeater
frozen as im flying someone pass me up a heater
bleeding out the walls, our conscience trapped in a deep freezer
don't you see her, she's staring at us openly, choking brittle bones
the poisons that we take will make us start to float at sea
see the broken trees
see mother natures cloaked in smoke and fumes we call necessity
overly producing till our wallets burst,
its over see
yet were over keen
its how we tell it to the children
sell them bottled future like the universe has killed them
blame it on the past we cant accept that's how its still done
its not to late fix our flaws, together we rebuild them
its not to late fix our flaws, together we rebuild them

As I trudge through
The wasted ravaged land
Our dreams they turn to sand
We need a global thought reversal
Everything is universal
In a swarm of flies.
Caught by a web of lies.
Let me be free.

Step across the border of this land
A line drawn in the sand
Looking for a patch of green
Feeling like a refugee
Like a swarm of flies
Then you will realize
You will be free

see, we are born into a thickle time, 
we look into a mirror but our eyes are closed as if we're blind
floating in the openness, our choices are what we define
the future of a planet that we spray with poison pesticides
do we resign,
or take a breath for the human kind
then educate not terminate our kin with open arms and minds
we try to resolutely stop the latest bombs that we design
and plan on freeing nations from the leaders that will terrorise
or marginalise the ones cant defend in time, 
the refugees are fleeing, yet its them we blame and victimise
forgetting that their humans too comparing them to swarm of flies
the real swarm that gathers rules and feeds us with their printed lies
i ask myself where is it that we reside
a border is a notion that will keep our spirits trapped inside
i ask myself where is it that we reside
a border is a notion that will keep our spirits trapped inside

As I trudge through
The wasted ravaged land
Our dreams they turn to sand
We need a global thought reversal
Everything is universal
In a swarm of flies.
Caught by a web of lies.
Let me be free.
Step across the border of this land
A line drawn in the sand
Looking for a patch of green
Feeling like a refugee
Like a swarm of flies
Then you will realize You will be free
