lyrics

How can I explain to him
He's just a child he can't understand
The only world he's ever known
Has left him now she's not coming home

You've broken a promise
Made him homeless
Made him homeless
Broken a promise

Just like me your family had no choice
When you arrived they lost their voice
Now you watch your mother breaking down
At the fragile minds all around

You've broken a promise
Made them homeless
Made them homeless
Broken a promise

The damage done
The damage done

Now I'm taking out my wary heart
With a coldness I learned from you
I hold it out for all to see
And burn the words that I once used

You've broken a promise
Made me homeless
Made me homeless
Broken a promise

The damage done
The damage done
The damage done
The damage done

You've broken a promise
Made us homeless
Made us homeless
Broken a promise
