When I hit the streets back in '81
Found a heart in the gutter and a poet's crown
I felt barbed wire kisses and icicle tears
Where have I been for all these years?
I saw political intrigue, political lies
Gonna wipe those smiles of self-satisfaction from their eyes

I will wear your white feather, I will carry your white flag
I will swear I have no nation but I'm proud to own my heart
I will wear your white feather, I will carry your white flag
I will swear I have no nation but I'm proud to own my heart
My heart, this is my heart

We don't need your uniforms, we have no disguise
Divided we stand, together we'll rise

Beirut children, Jerusalem children
Tokyo children, Moscow children

We will wear your white feathers, we will carry your white flags
We will swear we have no nation but we're proud to own our hearts
We will wear your white feathers, we will carry your white flags
We will swear we have no nation but we're proud to own our hearts
Our hearts, these are our hearts
You can't take away our hearts
You can't steal our hearts away
I can't walk away I can't walk away
No more, no more, no more, no more
