Born in a faraway land
Brought up with anger and fear
I was a stranger there, and so am I here
I'm coming to your home
Like you did long ago
But take look at me, I was like you
I'm your nightmare
Pushed by the waves, how long will it take
To get to the sands of a strange land
Thunder and rain won't keep me away
Pushed by the wind and the waves
I know I'm scaring you
But what did you think I would do?
I crossed the ocean now, there's no turning back
A body's washed ashore
You say it's not your war
But take a look at him, he was like you
He's your nightmare
[chorus & solo]
I got no place on my own, my world is crumbling down
But all that goes around, comes around
I'm coming to your home
Like you did long ago
But take look at me, I was like you
I'm your nightmare
[chorus]
Pushed by the waves, I'll make it someday
Pushed by the waves, I'm on my way
Thunder and rain won't keep me away
Pushed by the wind and the waves
