Open up your borders

by Mr. Darvish

about

Dedicated to the unsung heroes of the refugee crisis; the survivors and anyone who has helped out in their way...

Inspired by a short spell volunteering at Carlton studios packing clothing donations for Refugee Camps around Europe.

lyrics

Home town under attack
Bombed out never go back but he's happy...
Just to be alive

In black bags, sorting through clothes there's a
Friendly face that I know who's been
Fighting the fight for human rights

Me? I'm just a half ass trying to feel whole,
A soul searcher, got to let go
Oh things I don't need

Hand outs, sorting these clothes
Let let let it all go
What do we need?

to Open up your borders
Open up your heart
Many hands make light work and now is the time to start
Open up your borders
Open up your time
Many hands make light work so with a few more friends of mine...

Good folks who don't have a home will be
Wrapped up warm when it's cold
Oh you've been through the wars

A humble jumble, bought and sold oh a
Long journey dangerous road
All overboard

Open up your borders
Open up your heart
Many hands make light work and now is the time to start
Open up your borders
Let go some of that stuff
Obese-cities don't look so pretty when you just don't have enough

Open up your borders
Open up your heart
Many hands make light work and now is the time to start
Open up your borders
Open up your time
Many hands can help stop a struggle, oh a struggle to survive

I guess I'm, doing what I can...
Your wasting your time man
Oh it's fine, I guess I'm, doing what I can
yeah your wasting your time man

What to do?
It's up to you...
