Sans Frontiers Lyrics

He just got on the plane.
Thoughts ringing like a bell.
What did he sign up for?
A ticket straight to hell.

What awaits when he lands,
in a country torn apart?
How much blood, how much death?
How badly are the nations scarred?

Don't know which thoughts to keep.
He can't think of holes in loam.
He'll cross borders on this flight
and he left those his at home.

He's known death for so long,
he knelt before it's crown,
what form will it take this time?
Or maybe will she be his own?

He sweated blood for years,
with just this plane in mind.
But now he's not so sure,
a fear of a new kind.

Don't know which thoughts to keep.
He can't think of holes in loam.
He'll cross borders on this flight
and he left those his at home.

He's been trained for all
that might be thrown his way,
but that "what if?" in his head
just won't to go away.

He knows it's all at stake
as soon as this plane arrives.
Can't ignore all that suffer.
Can't ignore all those lives.

Knows he is the lucky one.
Has a debt and he wants to pay.
Needs to give back to the world,
so he found his way.

One of the few of us.
The world never showed it's harms.
He wants to fight the death,
so he runs into her arms.

That's why he joined, he has to help.
Cure those who have no one else.
The ones burnt by hell's fire,
in the lands of empty shells.

Give to needy and want nothing back,
smiles will be more than gold.
Even if he risks it all,
selfishness still kept on hold.

Those are the thoughts he has to keep.
He can't think of holes in loam.
He'll cross borders on this flight
and he left those his at home.
