Where the Journey Ends

I gave you a goodbye kiss
But I never meant to say goodbye
One of these days we’ll reminisce
Smiling at the tears we cried
We used to have a home sweet home
But life became a dead-end street
Now we found a stepping stone
The status of a refugee
We will not surrender
We won’t take the stand
We’re on this ship together
Wondering where the journey ends
We’ve been cast aside before
Apparently it’s meant to be
One day we will reach the shore
One day we will make ends meet
But we will not surrender
We won’t take the stand
We’re on this ship together
Wondering where the journey ends
Back home there’s a war going on
They’re raping our daughters and they’re killing our sons
We couldn’t fight back, so we had to run, run
The weather was great, but it wasn’t much fun
Some of us live, some of us die
It’s hard to tell, but it’s worth a try
We couldn’t care less if it don’t make sense
We just want to know where the journey ends
We will not surrender
We won’t take the stand
We’re on this ship together
Wondering where the journey ends
