The World Looks Away by Karan Casey
I woke up from the dream
To find it all the same
The pain was still here
And the world looked away
The world looked away
The world looked away
The world looked away
Palestine burns
The curfew lingers on
Invasion by night
Occupation by dawn
And the world looks away
The world looks away
The world looks away
Refugees, set your spirits free
Rise your souls above the dust
An F16 won't bring you down
Nor take your land from your heart
Child of Jenin
Your strength must get you through
They took your brothers once
And soon they will come for you
And the world will look away
The world will look away
The world will look away
Refugees, set your spirits free
Rise your souls above the dust
An F16 won't bring you down
Nor take your land from your heart
And the world will look away
The world looks away
Palestine burns
And the world looks away
The world looks away
