lyrics

ILLEGAL

No human is illegal, no human is illegal
But your policies, they should be,
They’re drowning by the thousands
In the Mediterranean sea.

They say it’s all relative, it just depends how you look at it
So I’m trying to turn my head around
But we’re taking our kids on holiday
And they’re taking their kids away
So the only thing that’s relative in this situation is..
LETS TEAR THESE BORDERS DOWN

We’re all going on a summer holiday
Where shall we go this year, my dear?
The south of France, Spain or Italy?
I just can’t wait to be lying on that beach
The turquoise seas, the golden sands
Feel my problems all float away
It’s been a stressful year at my nine to five
But here I am, I’m still alive.

They say it’s all relative, but they stop the boats from saving them
and if they succeed they block the ports.
Here I am relaxing in the sun in a foreign land
it haunts me there are souls forgotten in this sand
The ocean is a graveyard, and people they still drown
So what we need to do is bring these borders down.

From all around the world, Europe stole it’s wealth
And then we built a fortress, to try and keep it for ourselves
The real enemies are writing the mass media,
peddling lies to keep us divided.
But ‘refugees welcome’ means more than just a tshirt
it’s volunteers breaking laws to save lives.
no borders, no nations, let’s stop deportations
coz there is no justice while it’s death or vacation.

The dingys have already sunk
The flights they have already flown
Lives that were never lived
Names that we’ll never know.

They say it’s all relative, but it’s sponsored fascists in government
and we’re the ones that benefit just coz of where we’re born
we said “never again!” but we seemed to miss the start
hostility’s been building, lives already ripped apart.
So the only thing that’s relative in this situation is
LETS BURN THESE BORDERS DOWN
FUCK ICE. FUCK FRONTEX. FUCK UKBA. FUCK THE BORDERS.

Freedom of movement is more than just a dream
people have always moved, it’s how it’s always been
there were no lines on this earth when it was born
and when we’re done with is, again they’ll be no more.
